Despite guidelines to screen for SDOH during pregnancy there is no universal tool. Our pilot project demonstrated the concurrent use of adapted screening tools where participants reported at least one area of potential stress, and that linking to resources at the time of a visit is plausible. Future work should examine if screening and point of care linkages of services improves maternal child outcomes.
