Abstract: Building on a project that started in 1983, this project maintains and strengthens the eight DHHS Region IV states' MCH, family planning, and women's agencies' capacity to identify factors that contribute to the high infant mortality rate in the region and key non-reproductive women's health problems; strengthens the MCH, family planning, and women's health agencies' leadership role in planning, promoting, coordinating, and providing health care to address the problems identified; and fosters coordination and cooperation between the state MCH, family planning, and women's health agencies and their state statistical agencies.
