Critical report on the health of our moms. Houston, we hold the keys to doing better in Texas. The path to improving is through collaboration across organizations and sectors.
Community Impact | Strategic Planning | Advocacy | Public Policy | Volunteer | Director, MCH Collective Impact at March of Dimes
Today March of Dimes released our 2024 Report Card, showcasing the state of mom and baby health in our country and in Texas. Since the initial release in 2008, one thing that has remained constant: an alarmingly high preterm birth rate. In Texas, 1 in 9 babies is born before 37 weeks gestation, and stark disparities exist between our Black and white babies. The US must prioritize the health of its moms and babies. We can change the tide of the maternal and infant health crisis by taking urgent action today to help ensure a healthy tomorrow for all families. We can all make a profound impact for today and future generations by investing in our communities, advocating for policy change, and raising funds for critical research and programs.
