Supporting First-Time Moms With a Pregnancy Navigator
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether having a personal navigator (a guide who helps you get the care and resources you need) can make pregnancy healthier for first-time moms with low income. If you join, you'll get extra support from a navigator throughout your pregnancy.
