Brief summary: The purpose of the research is to identify the prevalence of preconception health (PCH) risk factors in the Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph (WDG) catchment area and to determine whether or not a client-driven electronic preconception health risk assessment tool "My Health eSnapshot", for use during healthcare visits, will increase preconception health knowledge and behaviour change among women of reproductive age (15-49 years).

Detailed description: The purpose of the project is:

1. To develop a client-driven electronic preconception health client risk assessment tool for use in a primary care setting.
2. To develop a customized key message handout for patients based on their risk assessment results.
3. To determine a successful and sustainable process for healthcare providers (HCPs) to administer the risk assessment tool and discuss results with patients within their primary care setting.
4. To increase participants' knowledge of preconception health and their risk factors as a results of the risk assessment tool and discussion with their HCP.
5. To modify participants' health behaviours as a result of the risk assessment tool and discussion with their HCP.
6. To increase WDG Public Health's understanding of the most prevalent preconception health risk factors among reproductive women in WDG.
