Georgia is among the top states in the nation with the worst maternal mortality rates. According to the Georgia Department of Public Health Maternal Mortality Report (2019- 2021), 42% of pregnancy-related deaths occurred at day 7 to 42 days postpartum. Of all maternal deaths, 85% were preventable. The study goes on to show that 57% of these deaths were African Americans. Racial inequities contribute to that disparity: African
American patients die during and after pregnancy at a rate three times higher than their white counterparts. Also, our African American babies are three times more likely to die before their first birthday. As a community, we must demand better and do our part to be better.

Please note, the event is free but due to breakfast and lunch being served, registration is required.
