Funded Activity Summary

Smoking is a major cause of poor health in mothers and babies, yet smoking rates remain high in Indigenous pregnant women. This fellowship supports a trial of a culturally competent targeted intervention for Indigenous pregnant women who smoke. The intervention provides webinar training of health providers in participating Aboriginal Medical Services. A control group will use their standard care practices. Smoking rates of the women cared for by health providers in each group will be compared.
