Join us for a powerful OHCEngage LIVE Fireside Chat on Wednesday, Nov. 20 at 12:30 p.m. EST, where we’ll address the critical issue of maternal mortality in the United States with 4Kira4Moms.
4Kira4Moms is a nonprofit dedicated to eliminating maternal mortality in the U.S. by advocating for improved maternal health policies and supporting families affected by preventable maternal mortality.
The organization was founded by Charles Johnson to honor the memory of his late wife Kira Johnson, and countless other mothers who have lost their lives due to childbirth complications.
Maternal mortality rates in the U.S. are the highest among developed countries, and according to the Centers For Disease Control, Black women are three times more likely to die from a pregnancy-related cause than White women. This urgent issue needs our attention, and 4Kira4Moms is actively pushing for improved health policies to save lives.
4Kira4Moms has helped pass several pieces of legislation including the Preventing Maternal Deaths Act of 2018, Protecting Moms Who Served Act of 2021, California Momnibus 2022, and is currently working with Congress to pass the Black Maternal Momnibus Act of 2021, an unprecedented set of bills addressing every aspect of the maternal health crisis in America.
During this Fireside Chat, OHC Editorial Content Manager, Faith Boone will be leading the discussion with Charles and Gabrielle "Gabby" Albert, 4Kira4Moms Executive Director, as they share their personal experiences, insights, and advocacy efforts to combat maternal mortality.
The session will conclude with a Q&A, where attendees will be able to submit questions through the chat feature on OHCEngage and be part of this important conversation.
