The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the effects on child and family development of early community services, including a brief nurse home visiting program. The proposed study will be conducted in partnership with the brief nurse home visiting program and Sinai Hospital, both located in Baltimore, MD. For the purposes of this study, Sinai Hospital will serve as the community/catchment area. Nurse home visitors enroll new mothers into the nurse home visiting program while they are still in the hospital/maternity ward. When the current study officially begins, nurse home visitors will recruit new mothers into the nurse home visiting program every other day only (on odd dates). Research staff will recruit all Baltimore City residents who give birth at Sinai Hospital, regardless of odd/even birth date, while they are still in the hospital/maternity ward.
