Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies Coalition of Georgia
Old Fourth Ward
Founded in 1974 as a statewide, nonpartisan nonprofit organization, Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies Coalition of Georgia has been one of the strongest statewide voices for improved access to healthcare and health outcomes for Georgia’s mothers, birth givers and babies.
During these unprecedented times, HMHBGA recognizes just how critical it is to not only provide direct resources and education to families but also bolster the workforce and reduce systematic barriers to ensure that every mother, birthing person and child has access to resources for a healthier life. To support this need, HMHBGA focuses on the full spectrum of maternal and infant health concerns from prematurity to maternal mortality. As a statewide organization, HMHBGA honors the diversity of our neighbors in the 159 counties across Georgia and in doing so, provides resources that are relevant to the individual needs of each community.
To improve maternal and infant health through our collective advocacy, education, and access to vital resources.
To realize a Georgia where all thrive with equitable access to perinatal resources and knowledge, responsive to the needs that are reflected in our diverse communities.
We center equitable representation in all collaborative conversations
We build trust by humanizing data that speaks to and centers the communities we serve
HMHBGA focuses on State-level policy, but strategically moves into national policy discussions when it directly affects the state of Georgia.
