| Project Description |
| Las Madres Nuevas is a research study funded by the National Institute of Mental Health. The objective is to learn about how relationships between low-income Mexican American mothers and their children from birth through the first few years of life affect mother’s mental health and the child’s emotional, behavioral, and physical development. The Las Madres Nuevas project also explores how women’s cultural background and strengths influence her adjustment after childbirth. |
