Based on gaps identified in earlier project phases, the SAS-HV team set out to create a feasible, acceptable, relevant, and reliable measure to support research and evidence building on reflective supervision in the home visiting context. To do so, they engaged individuals with technical and practice expertise across four measure development phases. This manual details the measure development and testing process. It includes findings related to the structure of the SuPRS–HV, preliminary evidence of concurrent validity, supervisor experiences using the measure, and guidance on using the SuPRS–HV for research and practice.

This manual introduces the Supervisor Practices in Reflective Supervision—Home Visiting (SuPRS–HV), a measure of reflective supervision for the home visiting workforce. Measure development was part of a larger project, Supporting and Strengthening the Home Visiting (SAS-HV) Workforce, which explored how reflective supervision is defined, measured, supported, and associated with program outcomes in home visiting and related fields.
