I think the book is great for the MIC prenatal patients. I had the opportunity to use a MIC clinic in East Harlem ,115 street back in 1986-87. They provided me with excellent care. My son now is 21yrs.old healthy and a product of MIC clinics. Keep up the great work!
Baby Basics--What a terrific program!
How great for the women who are involved with Baby Basics and also for those at home who may be providing additional support for her!
Congratulations Public Health Solutions for a win-win program!
