Research Currently in Progress
“University of Illinois Chicago Maternal Health Research Center of Excellence” aims to address maternal mortality and morbidity by establishing a Center with three Cores: Research, Community Partnership, and Training. The research will examine the “Multilevel exposure to adversity across the life-course: Quantifying biological implications in urban postpartum women.” This project is funded by a NIH U54.
“Illinois Pediatric Mental Health Care Access Expansion Program” aims to expand psychiatric consultation services provided across the State to children and adolescents, provide a multitude of mental health education and training opportunities to physicians and health care professionals, and strengthen the network of mental health resources and referrals accessible to providers and their patients. This project is funded by HRSA and the Illinois Department of Public Health.
“Innovations to Improve Maternal Outcomes in Illinois (I-PROMOTE-IL)” is a State Maternal Health Innovation Program to improve systems-level maternal health efforts and develop novel approaches to address maternal mortality and morbidity. The aims are to establish an Illinois Maternal Health Task Force and strategic plan, improve state-level maternal health data and surveillance, and develop innovations in maternal health service delivery. This project is funded by HRSA.
“Improving Maternal Health Through an Adaptation of a Two-Generation Post Partum Care Model in Diverse Settings” aims to evaluate successful components of the current integrated Two-Generation model of care, understand potential barriers and facilitators to implementation of this care model among a national sample of diverse community health centers, and refine the model of care to meet the needs of community health centers that are caring for women who experience persistent disparities. This project is funded by a NIH R21.
“BEhavioral Health Stratified Treatment (BEST) to optimize transition to adulthood for youth with intellectual/developmental disabilities” aims to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of the Maternal Child Health Bureau Care Coordination plus Coordinated Healthcare for Complex Kids (CHECK) vs Care Coordination alone for youth with intellectual/developmental disabilities. This project is funded by PCORI.
