The bill to expand the Child Tax Credit (CTC) would help 16 million children whose families would receive crucial support. As my colleague Monica Hobbs Vinluan recently said about the CTC, “We know how to fight poverty, so let’s do it.” rwjf.org/en/insights/bl…
In their April article, @SarahHallGordon of @BUSPH and coauthors explore the effects of postpartum Medicaid expansion in Colorado and mental health care utilization. Read more: bit.ly/4aNrMHL
Politics shouldn’t trump public health. It is unacceptable that today the Biden Administration has yet again delayed a rule that would end the sale of menthol cigarettes. The science is clear: these delays are completely unjustified and cost lives.
Balancing work and childcare during spring break can be a serious struggle. We need to do more to support working parents, from adopting a federal paid leave policy, to lowering barriers to childcare.
"The work requirement for Medicaid caused someone who was already on Medicaid and working to lose both Medicaid and their work." As @iamjohnoliver explains on @LastWeekTonight, so-called "work requirements" don't work. Instead, they put millions at risk of losing coverage.
The 2024 Annual Data Release provides a snapshot of the health of the nation’s counties through the lens of more than 80 factors – from housing, education, voter turnout and more. Explore your county’s data: countyhealthrankings.org #CountyHealth
Short-term insurance plans can be risky, leaving people without comprehensive health coverage when they need it most. This move by the Biden Administration is a win for consumers. reuters.com/world/us/biden…

This Black Maternal Health Week, @RWJF partnered with @peoplesTV to create 2 free short films that showcase the stories of reproductive justice advocates @ChanelPorchia and @JennieJoseph. Add these films to your watchlist this week: rwjf.ws/3J7Xhk8
Children enrolled in ACA health plans rose 40% between 2023 - 2024. While I wish I could celebrate, that still means over a million kids who lost coverage in the Medicaid unwinding remain uninsured. States must do more to keep kids from slipping through the cracks.

🔁: @PPFA Doulas provide a spectrum of care for families and communities. This care is especially important for Black mamas whose maternal health outcomes are usually improved when they’re working with a doula! ❤️ #BlackMaternalHealthWeek #BMHW #BMHW24 @BlkMamasMatter
Birth doulas provide essential support to new and expecting mothers, ensuring every birthing person has the individualized care they deserve. #BMHW24 Watch the full film on birth justice organization @AncientSong7: youtu.be/htF3t1nXA5c
Today is the last day of #BMHW24! Swipe to see the amazing work of our Alliance partners in your community through #BMHInYourNeighborhood! From doula care to maternal health, our partners lead the way in birth & reproductive justice. Thank you all for your dedication!
30 years of fighting for bodily autonomy, safe communities, equity, & justice. Inspired by our foremothers, we stand firm in our commitment to ensure everyone's right to make decisions about their own bodies and lives. #ReproJustice #BMHW24 #30YearsStrong
California DHCS launched the Medi-Cal doula benefit on Jan 1, 2023, providing doula care for Medi-Cal enrollees! With up to 11 visits, this promotes birth equity for all. To support this cause, CHCF works with NHeLP to study California's doula landscape. chcf.org/blog/more-doul…

For every family to experience the joy of a healthy birth, policymakers need to advance family-supportive policies, including the Momnibus, Medicaid expansion, paid leave, and more. #BMHW24
Our Alliance Partners are bringing you some incredible events for #BMHW24! Take a peek at what's happening in your area this week. And don't miss out on the full lineup of official #BMHW24 local events near you! Explore now: bit.ly/bmhw24localeve…
As part of Black Maternal Health Week, we're highlighting how Community Health Centers are working to improve maternal health outcomes. One result? Health center patients have LOWER rates of low-birth weight babies than the national average. #BMHW24 #ValueCHCs
.@FamiliesUSA joins @BlkMamasMatter to call for improved health outcomes for Black Mamas. Congress must pass the #Momnibus Act, which aims to address the crisis by making critical investments in the drivers of health, diversifying our workforce & funding community orgs. #BMHW24
Black Maternal Health Week is, above all, a week dedicated to educating and advocating for Black maternal health. We will keep fighting against the reproductive health care inequities Black women face until the inequities disappear. #BMHW24
Happy #BlackMaternalHealthWeek Everyone deserves to be heard, to experience joy and to be kept safe as they expand their families🌞 #maternalhealth #healthequity #BMHW24
#BlackMaternalHealthWeek has arrived 💛 Follow along as we amplify Black voices and advocate for maternal health: nywf.org/bmhw2024 #BMHW24 @BlkMamasMatter @movfamilypower @onebklynhealth @LorettaJRossm @ReadRiseMag

"Its not midwife OR doula, its midwife AND doula and together midwives and doulas definitively make a winning team" -Nicole Deggins #BMHW24 #BlackDoulaDay
REALLY upset with this headline. In article, they state that disparities persist for black women even after correction. Dead white moms = “crisis.” Dead black moms = no crisis!? 🤯 Study says U.S. maternal death rate crisis is really a case of bad data washingtonpost.com/health/2024/03…
This confirms my longstanding view that working in health policy requires repeating yourself, a lot.
New: Somewhat remarkably, just 39% of adults know that the Affordable Care Act prohibits insurers from denying coverage due to pre-existing conditions. kff.org/affordable-car…
