If you are a pregnant woman or thinking about becoming pregnant, please consider joining us in this important study.

The Navajo Birth Cohort Study will be accepting volunteers willing to participate in the collection of environmental and biological samples during and after their pregnancy.

The goal of the study is to better understand the relationship between uranium exposures and birth outcomes and early developmental delays on the Navajo Nation. The data from the study may be used to improve future birth outcomes and services.

• Are you pregnant and 14 to 45 years old?

The NBCS is being conducted in response to community questions and concerns about whether exposure to uranium mining and milling waste is affecting the outcome of pregnancies or the development of children on Navajo Nation. The project is a collaboration among the University of New Mexico’s DiNEH Project, CDC/ATSDR, Navajo Area Indian Health Service, and the Navajo Nation Division of Health. This table is to help you understand what will happen and when.

12 months	Follow-up survey on infant feeding and parenting activities		Assessments of growth, progress*, home environment; blood collection (heel or finger puncture) and urine sample	Administer both questionnaires, collect samples; refer to GIB if needed; review baby’s medical record

*At 2, 6, 9, and 12 months, growth will be assessed by measurements such as length and weight; progress by a screening
