Midwives Save Lives. The numbers and the stories tell us that we need to change the way we do birth in Massachusetts. ALL birthing people deserve to be safe, listened to, and have a positive birth experience -- shaping how they enter parenthood. Take action with link in comments!

We all have a role to play in combatting our maternal health crisis, including racial disparities. Today I joined organizations receiving our Maternal Health Equity Grants to discuss what they're seeing on the ground and how these funds will make an impact on their work.

It may seem contradictory that a state known for coercively sterilizing Black women & girls (“Mississippi appendectomy”) to prevent them from giving birth would force a 13-year-old Black girl who was raped to birth the baby. Both are reproductive slavery. time.com/6303701/a-rape…

Before working with The White Dress Project, Nkem Osian didn’t talk about her #fibroids because of the culture of silence. She now feels empowered to break the #stigma that keeps women suffering in silence. Nkem's article is Now Live! Scan the QR code to have a read.
