Navajo Birth Cohort Study

ENROLLMENT SURVEY FOR MOTHERS

The purpose of this study is to look into community concerns about whether exposure to uranium mining and milling waste affects the outcome of pregnancies and the development of Navajo children. The proposed research will provide a public health benefit through education on environmental prenatal risks and provide earlier assessment and referral for identified developmental delays. Finally, the results of this study will provide the first Navajo-Nation-wide documentation of birth outcomes and developmental delays. Information gathered and analyzed will be provided to the tribe and Navajo

Area Indian Health Service which may be used to improve future birth outcomes and services.
