Justification: This project will create a dataset with a broad
array of data on biological, socio-economic, home and neighborhood
environment, behavioral risk and protective factors, health services
and expenses across the developmental and life stages. In addition,
this project intends to make this novel dataset shareable to other
researchers. This supplement will support testing the dataset, its
user-friendliness, and the sharing process.
The MH-RC-MSI CC recipient is uniquely qualified to test and
validate the data linkage and sharing process through use cases and
research studies because:
<bullet> They have the current infrastructure and connections with
sixteen HRSA funded MH-RC-MSI research centers to ensure coordinated
testing and validation;
<bullet> They support numerous early-stage investigators through a
mentorship program who can use the dataset to conduct research projects
on maternal health;
<bullet> They have a record of successfully managing HRSA's
Maternal and Child Health Bureau-funded projects that examine a broad
range of adverse maternal health outcomes since 2023 and have
consistently met goals and objectives.
These data linkage activities will run from September 2025 to July
2027, years 3 through 4 of the MSI project period. This is a new
activity.

Administrator.
