MORE ABOUT BIRTH EQUITY 4 ALL
3 ACTION PILLARS:
FIND SOLUTIONS
By fundraising for research, I help the birthing community address preventable health conditions through expanding research and improving maternal morbidity and mortality data collection.
RAISE AWARENESS
I recruit and lead The March of Dimes Next Gen advocacy program, empowering young healthcare professionals with advocacy skills, toolkits and resources and knowledge in health justice.
ADVOCATE FOR CHANGE
By connecting with lawmakers and demanding they prioritize equity, access and prevention for all, I advocate for change in laws and legislations that protect moms, babies and families.
With the goal of making transformational change in a system that has historically failed our mothers and babies – especially our mothers and babies of color, Birth Equity 4 All is helping to create a world where no woman has to die giving life.
