Computer-delivered Screening & Brief Intervention for Marijuana Use in Pregnancy

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Marijuana Use, Pregnancy

In brief

Marijuana is by far the mostly commonly used illicit drug during pregnancy, and prenatal exposure to marijuana can have lasting negative effects. However, current answers to this problem are failing to reach most women who use marijuana while pregnant. This project will develop and begin testing two technology-based, highly practical interventions that could reduce the number of children who are prenatally exposed to marijuana.
