The Sure Start Project was implemented at a large scale and involved pregnant women and subsequent perinatal period. No mothers who had received benefits from the Sure Start programs were affected by stoppage of funding in 2011. Policymakers were informed of the results of the Sure Start projects through various dissemination mechanisms: program report, individual contact, and formal presentations. (Am J Public Health.
