Resources and Organizations that Fight to end Maternal Mortality

Updated: Nov 22, 2021

  • The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) is a great resource for extensive information about maternal mortality and prevention.

  • Audacious Inquiry/ainq.com is another good resource that provides information about maternal mortality and different ways that MM can be prevented and eradicated.

  • The National Birth Equity Collaborative (NBEC) is a group founded by Dr. Joia Crear-Perry that focuses overhauling the systems and structures that contribute to maternal deaths. The NBEC provides racial equity training sessions to reduce implicit bias—a known factor that can cloud medical providers’ judgment when dealing with black pregnant and postpartum people. The NBEC also provides training and assistance for other organizations working on black maternal mortality. And to make sure these kinds of solutions will actually work.

  • MomsRising is a nonpartisan organization pushing for cultural and legislative change around various pressing issues, like gun safety, paid family leave, and maternal justice. MomsRising members serve on state maternal mortality review committees, partner with legislators on local and state policies, and call, visit, and write to elected leaders, among other ventures.
