Peer doula support with digital tools for substance use during pregnancy
Part of Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at a program where trained peer doulas (people who give emotional and practical support during pregnancy and after birth) work with patients who have substance use challenges. The study wants to see if adding digital tools to this support helps both patients and clinic staff, and may improve care and outcomes.
