There is limited information in the literature with a focus on research and practice collaborative efforts focused on prevention interventions for pregnant substance-abusing women. This article provides a cursory discussion of the need for continued collaborations between researchers and substance services prevention specialists. Both universal and selective methods are discussed as effective prevention strategies. A committed collaborative focus on the pregnant substance-abusing population is needed not only to increase and improve prevention and intervention strategies over time, but possibly to deter harm to unborn babies
