This year the Rally to Improve Birth will debut in El Paso, linking our community with thousands of people in cities around the country in a call for safer, evidence-based maternity care. This event is in solidarity for March for Moms in Washington DC, bringing attention to the paradox of the US’s poor maternal healthcare outcomes despite spending more than almost any other nation.

Texas has an especially egregious showing, with the worst maternal mortality rate in the developed world.

Come out to hear speakers present on a variety of topics from maternal mortality to the impact of birth interventions on breastfeeding, peruse vendors, connect with local resources, and win raffles. Together we can demand changes that are long overdue.
