The US has the highest rates of maternal & infant mortality (compared to peer nations). Longstanding racial & ethnic disparities are profound and disproportionately impact marginalized communities of color and populations receiving Medicaid benefits.

Momentum Park recognizes that Black History Month is not just a once-a-year event but a daily acknowledgment of the challenges and triumphs faced by the Black community. In light of the pressing issues affecting Black individuals and communities, we are committed to fostering awareness, understanding, and action year-round.
Dr. Martin Luther King’s iconic “I Have a Dream” speech, had a central theme throughout expressing the importance of equality. Maternal and infant mortality rates among Black mothers and babies continue to be alarmingly high, reflecting deep-seated disparities in healthcare access and quality.
Momentum Park strives towards a future where every Black mother and baby has the opportunity to thrive. Where black children will put out their first birthday candles and many more. Let us honor the resilience, strength, and contributions of Black individuals while working tirelessly to ensure that the health and well-being of moms-to-be and babies are prioritized and protected. Together, let's make every month Black History Month by actively working towards health equity for all.
