We need to continue to approach data and evaluation from an equity lens to effectively reduce disparate maternal outcomes, and I’m happy I get to do this #birthequity work with passionate and skilled friends like @KelDaroe
So proud of my colleague @fe2113 who is the evaluation expert for @nycHealthy's Maternity Hospital Quality Improvement Network (MHQIN), which supports better Black birth outcomes. She always brings an anti-oppression perspective to data collection, analysis and interpretation.

@KelDaroe said it best...Happy to join colleagues, partners and mentors this #BlackMaternalHealthWeek week as we continue to center the voices of Black women and birthing people, to improve maternal health outcomes locally and globally.

Black women are 2-3 times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white women. @POTUS and I are determined to ensure that Black women can get the care they deserve through pregnancy, childbirth, and post-partum. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek https://t.co/X0NGrEqIKH
"The coalition-building and organizing of Black women within the movement for sexual and reproductive justice is truly shifting the policy and health care landscape."
#EqualEverywhere means women like @KelDaroe can make their own choices: https://t.co/3O1ifX84an @unfoundation

.@fe2113 & her panel (including @mi_niles) will be discussing findings from interviews with NYC moms who had near death experiences at their births. It's going to be really heavy but essential. We owe it to these survivors to listen and hear their stories. #Nycmathealthsummit
