We continue to advocate for healthcare access for all people in America. Beginning with DC. Access to healthcare is one step. We also need to expand the ability to use healthcare. Our report, created in partnership with the Center for Popular Democracy on healthcare access in DC, was released in March 2023.





 

We must care for DC’s babies as our own because it takes a community to raise a child. We advocate for health programs that center children's physical and cognitive development from birth to five. Programs such as Healthy Steps and Healthy Futures.

HEALTHCARE IS A RIGHT, NOT A PRIVILEGE.

PERINATAL MENTAL HEALTH

OUR BABIES AND TODDLERS

We advocate for support for pregnant people in the first year after giving birth. The year after birthing a child is a prime time for postpartum depression to set in. It can impact the person who gave birth and their partner. Mental health support matters and can save a life. We advocate for Centering Pregnancy and Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Syndrome programs.
