November is Prematurity Awareness Month

Nov 07, 2020

According to the March of Dimes, 33,000 babies will be born preterm this month in the U.S. And preterm birth rates in our country continue to rise. That means moms and babies are dying or facing serious health problems every single day. This crisis is fueled by the health equity gap in our health care system that puts women and babies of color at the greatest risk. At Baby 1st Network, we want to encourage everyone to give to one of more of your charities who are committed the health and welfare of moms and babies. Let's bring this crisis to an end and support research and programs to help bring healthy babies to full term.
