Abstract
Housing insecurity has been shown to have an impact on the health care system due to negative maternal and neonatal outcomes. Housing insecurity is associated with the social determinants of health under the umbrella of economic stability and neighborhood/physical environments. Research shows that educational programs and support resources can help alleviate this strain for women who are pregnant. This article discusses the development and implementation of an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN)-led, prenatal education group for women facing housing insecurity who are pregnant and high risk. The curriculum was revised and based on a March of Dimes Becoming a Mom with alignment to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. The 10-week prenatal education program was created and implemented by a group of APRNs and registered nurses to aid pregnant women facing housing insecurity with coping strategies and education regarding their pregnancy.
