The National Center for Disability and Pregnancy Research is supporting the International Consortium of Research on Parents, Parenting, and Pregnancy with Disabilities.
This group is composed of leading international researchers who study the parenting and pregnancy experiences of people with disabilities. The International Consortium will support the Pregnancy Center's research through a cross-cultural exchange of ideas and best practices. The group will also provide annual webinars on critical topics related to disability, parenting, and pregnancy to the global stakeholder community. Please stay tuned for updates about this innovative initiative.
