Black Maternal Health has become one of the most urgent crises in the United States due to the staggering statistics that reveal the disproportionate morbidity rates among Black mothers. As per the Black Maternal Health Caucus, Black women are three to four times more likely to die from a pregnancy-related cause than White women. In addition, Black women are also twice as likely to lose an infant to premature death.
To address this crisis, Congresswomen Alma Adams (NC-12) and Lauren Underwood (IL-14) launched the Black Maternal Health Caucus on April 9th, 2019. With 53 founding members, the Caucus has grown to be one of the largest bipartisan caucuses in Congress, with more than 100 members as of January 2020.
During this panel discussion, we will learn how to recognize urgent maternal warning signs, provide timely treatment, and quality care that can prevent many pregnancy-related deaths.
