Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Children of mothers in the intervention parenting program are expected to show benefits over the standard care control group in terms of better cognitive/language development, less recent illness, and better height for age. The mothers assigned to the intervention parenting program are expected to evidence higher levels of home stimulation, better health prevention, and better dietary diversity, along with more accurate knowledge of child development.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
