Summary

The overarching goal of Thriving Hearts is to implement a multi-level program through Local Health Departments (LHDs) that cultivates conditions for mothers and birthing people to not only survive pregnancy, but to thrive. Thriving Hearts is a collaboration among LHDs in ten North Carolina counties, designed to reduce incidence of Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy (HDP) and their complications through support and connection at the individual, healthcare provider, and community level. The investigators will conduct a pragmatic, stepped-wedge, cluster randomized study. Participating LHDs will begin in a usual care phase, and they will transition to Thriving Hearts in clusters in a randomly assigned sequence at 9-month intervals.
