The New York University School of Medicine’s Starting Early Program-Expanded Prenatal (StEP-exP)

The New York University School of Medicine’s Starting Early Program-Expanded Prenatal (StEP-exP) is a primary care-based program designed to reach high-risk pregnant women and to serve as a framework to provide additional resources to address food insecurity during this sensitive period. The project will integrate Health Bucks into StEP-exP in order to address key causes of food insecurity, specifically lack of money and inaccessibility of nutritious foods. The program will assess the efficacy of increasing fruit and vegetable consumption during pregnancy, reducing household food insecurity during pregnancy and increasing farmers market accessibility.
