NE MO Regional Medical Center: My name is Kathleen Haas, I’m a second year psychology major, and general communication minor at Truman State University. This project has been very interesting and informative about the opportunities in the rural Kirksville area for women. I hope this project helps those who need it, and gives them valuable feedback!

Lifeline Pregnancy Help: My name is Meredith Spargo and I am a sophomore sociology major at Truman State University. This project has given me a new perspective to the community around me. The project has allowed to me to analyze the available options for pregnant women in Kirksville and apply what I found to a larger sociological and economical context.

Homebirth, Naturally: My name is Alissa Zeglen and I am a sophomore Sociology and Biology double major on a Pre-Medical track at Truman State University. Growing up in the Chicago suburbs then coming to rural Kirksville has given me the opportunity to delve into my curiosity of how people are differently affected by the healthcare resources available to them.
