Every mom and dad wants a healthy baby.

We want that for you, too. You can cut your risk of premature birth and complications by taking care of your baby before it’s born. It’s a proven fact that many birth complications can be prevented with early and continued prenatal care. When you learn that you are pregnant, make sure that you:

See a doctor or healthcare provider within the first three months of pregnancy
Keep your appointments
Eat properly by eating nutritious foods
Don’t smoke or drink alcohol
Avoid stress and activities that could result in physical injury
Learn the warning signs of preterm labor

Greater Richmond Regional Maternal Child Health Collective Impact Taskforce

Mission

Improve maternal and infant health outcomes and eliminate disparities through collaborative action as members of the Greater Richmond Regional Maternal Child Health Taskforce.

Context

In the summer of 2019 Mayor Levar Stoney approached the Richmond City Health Department to convene a group of community members, nonprofit organizations, legislative representatives, and health and social service providers in the City of Richmond to address racial disparities in maternal health outcomes. In response to this request, these individuals and entities organized to form a collective impact group, the Greater Richmond Regional Maternal Child Health Taskforce, which has been meeting since June 2019.
