Brief Summary: This is a two-armed, fully powered hybrid type 1 trial to test the effectiveness of a doula intervention compared with an active control in reducing intimate partner violence (IPV) among perinatal IPV survivors
Detailed Description: The study team will complete a 2-arm randomized clinical trial to test the effectiveness of IPV-trained doulas compared with an active control in reducing IPV among perinatal IPV survivors. Participants randomized into doula group will be paired community doula who will provide full-spectrum doula services prenatally (22 weeks gestation), through the birthing period, to early postpartum (6 months total). Participants randomized to the active two structured intakes from a victim services agency. Participants will be recruited from their prenatal visit at 1 of 3 sites with 163 perinatal people randomized to the doula group and 163 randomized to active control (N=326). The primary outcome is change in IPV across a range coercive behaviors from baseline to 12-months post enrollment. Secondary outcomes include change in cannabis and tobacco use, as well as depressive symptoms, anxiety, and unmet basic needs. The study will also be assessing changes in intermediate outcomes, including resource utilization, trust of doulas and IPV advocates, parenting stress, safety-related empowerment, and social support. Measures will be completed at enrollment, and then 3-, 6-, and 12-months post-enrollment. In Aim 2, the study team will be assessing potential mediators and moderators driving intervention effects and in Aim 3, collecting information about implementation outcomes.
