“The city must invest in maternal health—because to ignore it is to be complicit in maternal death. Speaker Adams said it best “The maternal health crisis is a public health emergency, and the deaths of mothers are entirely preventable if we act with urgency —We have the talent, knowledge, and tools to change the trajectory of maternal mortality in our city. — No one should die from preventable causes, and we owe it to our mothers to work together and get this right.” Nyasha’s Promise firmly believes that it is a moral duty and a public health necessity—and the cost of inaction is measured in lives.
