Preeclampsia Rates in Minority Communities Shed Light on the Social Roots of Maternal Health Disparities
Moms First is organizing free screenings to build a coalition for paid family leave and affordable child care, with only 27% of private-sector workers covered.
- The nonprofit Moms First, founded by former attorney Reshma Saujani, is organizing nationwide screenings of the documentary 'No Country for Mothers' to unite mothers advocating for paid leave and affordable child care.
- Despite evidence that paid family leave benefits children and parents, the United States lacks a federal policy, largely due to cultural debates pitting 'traditional family values' against modern economic realities.
- Federal law currently offers job protection to only 56% of the workforce, while a Center for American Progress study found only 27% of private-sector employees have access to paid leave.
- At a recent Annapolis screening co-hosted by Bailey Feldman, founder of Fount & Flourish, women shared stories to combat isolation, agreeing systemic challenges require legislative solutions rather than individual blame.
- Saujani seeks to shift focus from individual struggles to systemic policy change, aiming to transform these in-person connections into a nationwide movement for families of all circumstances.
