“We envision a Texas in which all children grow up to be healthy, safe, successful, and on a path to fulfill their promise — and we know that starts with healthy moms.

More broadly, our society relies on the ability of women to have and sustain healthy pregnancies and to deliver healthy children. In order for our communities to thrive, women—and again, Black women in particular—must be supported and provided with the tools and resources needed to procreate safely and without fear. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cb714bbb10f258125eab157/1576204721426-CFXTZ0H8RHR2XHCWQ1X3/BMCC+4.jpg Maternal Health Heroes: Black Mamas Community Collective - BMCC is a social movement, working on multiple levels. That is, we are really designed differently than a traditional non-profit that works on specific programs. Instead, we are operating on all levels – direct service for moms, legislative work, community organizing, institutional racism and implicit bias trainings, and community awareness – and established a non-profit entity in order to sustain this social movement. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cb714bbb10f258125eab157/1576203875544-618EQWMV2E5SAHUBSBFA/BMCC+3.jpeg Maternal Health Heroes: Black Mamas Community Collective - Finally, we know that we must address social determinants of health in order to help moms thrive. Through the work that we have done with low-income women in East Austin, we’ve found that this is crucial. For example, women need to be able to take time off from work after giving birth, so we encourage Texas policymakers to look closely at paid time off policies. Additionally, women need access to safe and affordable childcare so that they can return to work when the time is appropriate. https://circleupumw.org/unitedwayofgreateraustin-mhh daily 0.75 2020-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cb714bbb10f258125eab157/1580648553252-5Q1KD1SQZ41SKH1WTE1G/fullcolor_uwatx_logo_h-01.png UWGA MHH https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cb714bbb10f258125eab157/1580758326828-T8VFG86T7JYCA6EPE73R/united+way+of+greater+austin UWGA MHH -
