* Results are presented as adjusted odds ratios (AOR) with 95% confidence intervals in parentheses. Bolded results are statistically significant (p < 0.05). a Model 1 variables included maternal age, race/ethnicity, educational attainment, employment, Medicaid coverage, years in the United States (≥ 10 years in US) marital status, and household size. b Model 2 variables included all variables from model 1 and Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) score. c Model 3 variables included all variables from model 2 and an indicator for current receipt of public benefits (housing subsidies, TANF, SNAP, or WIC).
