STILLBIRTHS IN THE U.S.
Stillbirth affects more than 21,000 families in the U.S. each year. Count the Kicks is an evidence-based public health program that is proven to improve birth outcomes for moms and babies. Our goal is to decrease stillbirth in the U.S. by educating expectant parents about the importance of tracking fetal movement in the third trimester.
By spreading the word about Count the Kicks, we can work together to make sure fewer families have to endure the tragedy of stillbirth.
Count the Kicks has living proof that our program works. Our goal is to replicate Iowa’s success in all 50 states. When we can reduce America’s stillbirth rate by 32% as we have done in Iowa, we will save 7,500 babies every year.
We currently have funding partnerships in more than 30 states, with plan in place to launch Count the Kicks in all 50 states. We are actively looking for funding partners in the rest of the country.
