The purpose of the Project is to better understand the causes of poor birth outcomes in Los Angeles County; to identify areas where help and resources are needed the most; and to improve the health and human services of future mothers and babies in Los Angeles County.
Los Angeles Health Overview of a Pregnancy Event (LA HOPE) Project Data
Reports
The LA HOPE Project is a survey sponsored by the Los
Angeles County Department of Public Health. We are asking women who have had
a fetal or infant loss to answer questions about their life before, during,
and after pregnancy. The goal of the Project is to reduce infant death and
promote the health of mothers and babies. The information from the survey
may help us improve programs and policies for health and grief support.
