Individual Breastfeeding Support With Contingent Incentives for Low-Income Mothers

RTI International·interventional·Posted May 28, 2019·Updated Jul 4, 2025

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating WIC support + home-based individual support + Breastfeeding Incentives (SC+BFI) and WIC support + home-based individual support (SC) for Breastfeeding Duration. Completed, enrolled 168 participants across 2 sites.

Detailed Summary

This behavioral intervention trial will test whether a standard care breastfeeding intervention from the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program plus monthly financial incentives contingent on observed breastfeeding will improve breastfeeding duration among low-income mothers compared to a standard (WIC) care control. Investigators hypothesize that the standard care plus monthly contingent financial incentives intervention will promote longer breastfeeding duration, fewer infant health issues, and greater healthcare cost savings than the standard care (control) intervention.
