Summary

This pilot study tests if a 'Nurturing Care Family Navigator' can help low-income new moms improve their food security. 72 postpartum women who are on Medicaid or uninsured and have low food security will either get one-on-one navigation sessions plus an educational workbook, or just the workbook. The study measures changes in food security, knowledge, and confidence over 6 months.
