What this research studies
You may be contacted if you had a live birth in Wyoming two to six months ago and asked to complete a short questionnaire by mail, phone, or email. The project samples about 100 Wyoming mothers each month and can be completed in English or Spanish. It intentionally reaches more mothers of low-birth-weight infants and American Indian women, and pays special attention to women on Medicaid or in WIC to make sure their experiences are heard. Responses are used to spot differences across the state and improve programs for moms and babies.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal participants are women who lived in Wyoming and had a live birth in the past two to six months, especially mothers of low-birth-weight infants, American Indian women, and those on Medicaid or enrolled in WIC.
Not a fit: People who are not recent Wyoming mothers (or who live outside Wyoming) would not be eligible and are unlikely to benefit directly from participating.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the project could identify local pregnancy risks and service gaps so health programs can better support Wyoming mothers and infants.
How similar studies have performed: PRAMS is a long-standing CDC-supported surveillance program used successfully across many states to track maternal behaviors and inform public health actions.
