With 80% of maternal deaths considered preventable and nearly half occurring postpartum, the urgency to act has never been greater. What’s at stake? Autonomy. Communities. Equity. Freedom. Futures. Lives. Security.

📢 Today is #MaternalHealthAwarenessDay, and this year’s theme is “Know What’s at Stake!” Every year, Black and Indigenous birthing people disproportionately face the devastating impacts of the maternal health crisis in the United States. #pablackmaternalhealth #pamomnibus
