"What About Moms?"
Maternal mortality is a profound societal tragedy. Join us in raising awareness about this critical issue and advocating for change. By understanding the reasons behind the crisis, we empower ourselves to contribute to the solution.
About Us
Families USA, a leading national, non-partisan voice for health care consumers, is dedicated to achieving high-quality, affordable health care and improved health for all. Our work is driven by and centered around four pillars: value, equity, coverage and people’s experience. We view these focus areas — and the various issues unique to each area — as the cornerstones of America’s health care system.
"Maternal mortality is highest among Black and Indigenous people, who face about a three times greater risk of a pregnancy-related death than white women."
