Dr. Shalon's Maternal Action Project introduces:
Grandmothers Rallying Against Maternal Mortality & Morbidity Strong! (GRAMMS)
Dr. Shalon's Maternal Action Project confronts the stark reality of maternal mortality among Black women in the United States.
It's an unacceptable truth that Black women face significantly higher rates of death related to childbirth compared to other racial or ethnic groups. Many of these deaths are preventable with proper medical care, yet systemic issues persist, leading to unnecessary loss.
