The Mt. Hope Family Center is conducting a study to promote successful child development and to improve relations between mothers and their babies. If you are a mother with an infant about one year of age and are experiencing stress, you may be eligible to participate.
The program, which is called MIGHT (Mothers & Infants Growing Healthy Together), will provide valuable information about how mothers and children relate to one another. Women of any age and who have a limited income are invited to call the MIGHT recruiter at (585) 275-2991. Participants will receive transportation, child care during research visits, assistance obtaining services, and compensation for their time.
