    Maternal Health Awareness Day

    January 23, 2025 Posted by Annmarie Budniak Celebrations - Awareness, HIT Feed

    Follow and join the conversation with #maternalhealthawarenessday.

    Maternal Health Awareness Day is a dedicated time to recognize the importance of maternal health and advocate for the well-being of mothers before, during, and after pregnancy. It serves as a reminder of the need for quality healthcare, education, and support to ensure safe pregnancies and childbirth experiences. By raising awareness of maternal health challenges and disparities, we can work toward better outcomes for mothers and babies. Join us in spreading knowledge, supporting initiatives, and advocating for policies that prioritize maternal health for all.

    Know What’s at Stake

    Year after year, government data have shown that the maternal mortality rate in the United States remains unacceptably high, with Black and American Indian or Alaska Native pregnant and postpartum people disproportionately experiencing health inequities. The vast majority—roughly 80%—of maternal deaths are considered preventable, and nearly half of maternal deaths occur between seven and 365 days postpartum, not during delivery itself. For Maternal Health Awareness Day 2025, ACOG has selected the theme Know What’s at Stake. We invite our ACOG members, partners, and other members of our community to join us in raising awareness about what’s at stake for them as the maternal mortality crisis continues and as attacks on reproductive health care go on unabated.

    Eighty percent of U.S. maternal deaths are preventable. With access to comprehensive health care restricted after Dobbs, outcomes will likely worsen and inequities will likely grow.

    HHS Office for Civil Rights, Cedars-Sinai Enter Into Mutual Agreement to Advance Civil Rights and Improve Maternal Health for All
    The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office for Civil Rights (OCR), and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center (Cedars-Sinai) entered into a Voluntary Resolution Agreement (Agreement) to improve maternal health outcomes for Black, Latina, and other maternal patients of color.

    ACOF Live Webinar

    On Maternal Health Awareness Day, ACOG will host a live webinar to help attendees better understand all that is at stake for individuals and communities when it comes to maternal health. In this webinar, ob-gyns will share stories about the people affected by challenges accessing maternal health and reproductive health care—including themselves.

    Register for our #MaternalHealthAwarenessDay live webinar to hear from Rachel R. Hardeman, PhD, MPH, an expert in maternal and reproductive health, health inequity, and racism, and ob-gyns who will share stories about what is at stake for maternal health. https://t.co/whpPjcnngM pic.twitter.com/yaImCc69L5
