This is a randomized controlled trial to compare biomedical, behavioral and psychosocial outcomes by race among pregnant women who participate in CenteringPregnancy group prenatal care, to women in the traditional individual prenatal care and to investigate whether improving women's stress, activation and engagement will explain the potential benefits of CenteringPregnancy on outcomes and health disparities.
