Low Birthweight Initiative
Low birthweight infants (born weighing less than 5.5 pounds) face higher rates of infant mortality, developmental challenges and long-term disabilities. We are working to reduce the number of low birthweight babies born to Lamar County residents by partnering with social and health care agencies to provide smoking cessation classes, nutrition and healthy lifestyle classes, assistance with maternal stress management, and referral to affordable health and dental care.
