Some key risk factors include a history of substance abuse, partner abuse, mental illness or poor coping mechanisms, low socioeconomic status, medical conditions, malnutrition, pregnancy complications, lack of social support, and exposure to environmental toxins or teratogens. Students will be divided into groups to research and prepare a 2-page synthesis on how selected risk factors can negatively impact maternal and infant health outcomes.
