RACIAL DISPARITIES
Push for Equity
Research has revealed that expectant parents of color experience the tragedy of stillbirth at much higher rates than white mothers. Our goal is to prevent stillbirth, which means making sure all mothers are listened to and taken seriously.
STILLBIRTH IN THE U.S.
One out of every 173 pregnancies in the U.S. ends in stillbirth. That rate is two times higher for Black expectant parents.
Our goal is to expand Count the Kicks and reduce stillbirth in all 50 states.
