Description:Objective: To advance discussions around opportunities to improve the health of boys and men of color through innovative, clinical- based and community-based interventions that actively engage men of color during their and their partners' preconception, prenatal, and postnatal care. Because men of color typically experience significant barriers to good health and well-being, preconception and pregnancy-related care could be an effective entry point for this population into the health care system and enhance their opportunity to secure a medical home of their own. If successful, such interventions could produce a positive domino effect that results in healthier families, healthier babies and healthier boys of color that grow up to be healthier men.
