Paper Instructions
The purpose of this assignment is to practice writing goals and objectives and acquire a basic understanding of program design and evaluation that you will be covering more thoroughly in other classes.
The regional oral health collaborative is concerned about the oral health of pregnant women in their area. Studies indicate that poor birth outcomes may be linked to periodontal disease during pregnancy and the infectious nature of dental caries has raised concerns over the relationship between mother-child transmissions of bacteria. It has also been noted that children who had a dental visit were more likely to have had parents who had a dental visit. There are many barriers which prevent the women from obtaining oral health care during pregnancy. The collaborative has asked you to develop a program to increase the use of dental services by pregnant women.
