Evaluating the Kindred Prenatal Outreach Support Team (POST) Program
This project aims to help evaluate the Prenatal Outreach Support Team (POST) program at Kindred in Calgary, Alberta. POST is a special program that supports pregnant women facing tough challenges—like homelessness, substance use, domestic violence, or mental health issues. The support team includes a social worker, a nurse, and a police officer, and they work with clients during pregnancy and for up to three months after birth. To understand how well the program is working, we are interviewing ten POST staff members and six clients who have completed the program. These interviews will help us learn what’s working well, what could be improved, and how to make the program easier to access and more effective.
