Enhancing Perinatal Population Health through Community Care Hubs (CARE) is designed to test system level, organizational level, and workforce level strategies that may activate individual, community health worker (CHW), CHW supervisor, and system level mechanisms to improve care coordination, timely connection to prenatal and postpartum services, and downstream clinical outcomes related to maternal morbidity and mortality.
