Premature birth affects about 450,000 babies here in the United States. At the UH College of Nursing, this is an issue close to our hearts. We have faculty and alumni who work in Mother-Baby units, Neonatal Intensive Care Units, and Pediatric clinics where the effects of premature birth--and health disparities in receiving quality prenatal care--are all too visible. We’re walking on April 24 to raise awareness and funds to give moms better access to prenatal and NICU care. You can help by making a secure donation to our team page, donating to individual members of our team, or by joining our team to walk on April 24. Let's work together to give more babies the strongest start possible!
With preterm birth rates continuing to rise, the U.S. remains among the most dangerous developed nations for childbirth, especially for women and babies of color.
At March for Babies™ you're lifting up communities, creating connections and taking action to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.
Together, we’re marching to raise funds and awareness to transform the health of all families!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
