BMMA, Inc. (Black Mamas Matter Alliance) cordially invites you to the Georgia Black Maternal Health Taskforce (GaBMHT) Stakeholder Meeting.
Join us for a high-level, solutions-focused convening designed to shape Georgia’s maternal and child health policy priorities through an equity-driven lens. This facilitated session will bring together cross-sector leaders—including healthcare providers, public health professionals, policymakers, community advocates, institutional decision-makers, and professionals from fields such as transportation, housing, labor, and education—to collaborate on systemic solutions that improve maternal health outcomes across the state.
With a central focus on addressing the inequities impacting Black maternal health, this meeting will create space to:
- Analyze how current state and local policies impact maternal and infant health outcomes, particularly for Black women, birthing people, and families.
- Identify policy barriers and structural gaps that contribute to persistent disparities in access, quality, and outcomes.
- Gather both qualitative and quantitative data to inform and shape, equity-driven advocacy strategies for the 2027 Georgia legislative session.
This is an opportunity to contribute to a collective effort to transform Georgia’s maternal and child health systems—grounded in racial equity, collaboration, and community voice. Whether you work in a hospital system, public agency, nonprofit, university, or are a community leader, your insight is critical to this work.
