Council for Perinatal Health
***THIS PROGRAM IS NO LONGER ACTIVE***
The Council for Perinatal Health was founded in 1994 to facilitate system wide program policy, decision-making, and clinical interventions to improve perinatal outcomes in Contra Costa County. The Council is a collaborative effort of the following Contra Costa Health Services program and divisions: Family, Maternal and Child Health Programs; Contra Costa Health Plan; Community Health Assessment, Planning & Evaluation; and Alcohol & Other Drug Services.
Our goal is to promote and improve perinatal health in Contra Costa County.
