The Wisconsin Maternal Health Innovation (MHI) program at Wisconsin DHS is looking for a Limited Term Employee (LTE) Data Specialist (part-time).
The purpose of the MHI program is to improve maternal health in Wisconsin through the convening of an interdisciplinary Maternal Health Task Force, improving state-level maternal health data and surveillance, promoting innovation in maternal health service delivery, and ensuring alignment of maternal health efforts across the state.
Since 2007, Wisconsin has collected data from mothers about their pregnancy experiences as a part of the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS). The MHI program is supporting an initiative to also collect data from fathers about their experiences around pregnancy.

Day-to-day activities include:
- Sending surveys to sampled fathers
- Tracking data collection activities and returned surveys
- Organizing meetings with data collection partners
- Creating data products
- Collaborating with the Maternal Health Innovation/PRAMS Epidemiologist. Ideal candidates are:
- Available 20 hours/week for the position
