About the Nurture NJ Evaluation

The Nurture NJ initiative is New Jersey’s effort to improve maternal health by ensuring equity in maternal and infant health outcomes, and to reduce overall maternal and infant mortality and morbidity throughout New Jersey.

Under the leadership of Dr. Leslie M. Kantor, Professor and Chair of the Department of Urban-Global Public Health, we have partnered with the State of New Jersey to capture the full scope of Nurture NJ and evaluate its progress towards its mission and goals.
