Mission Statement
Mama2Mama is shifting the paradigm of the postpartum experience. We believe in the power of shared stories to reclaim the vulnerability of postpartum, particularly for mothers and birthing people from marginalized communities who are at higher risk for postpartum complications and face systemic barriers to accessing critical care. Through peer support groups and therapy, community-building, and making visible the challenges of postpartum, we create safe spaces where mothers are valued and empowered. We advocate for a society that values and invests in mothers, recognizing that their wellbeing is essential to the wellbeing of us all.
Description
The status quo is failing mothers. 60% of maternal deaths happen in the postpartum period - and for Black, Latina, and immigrant mothers, this risk is higher due to systemic racism and less access to culturally conscious care.
Many mothers and birthing people in their fourth trimester, the three-month period immediately following birth, lack support and care during this intense time of physiological and emotional change. Research shows that risks for postpartum complications increase with low social support and unmet needs - leading to increased rates of postpartum depression and anxiety and illustrates the stark maternal mortality rate in the U.S., in which Black women and birthing people are 3 to 4 times more likely to die than white women, and which nearly two thirds of occur during the fourth trimester.
Our programs bring people together to build a wheel of care within a supportive community that responds to the health, education, social and emotional, material, and financial needs of mothers and birthing people.
Our lead program, Mamas at the Border, serves refugee, migrant, and asylum-seeking mothers and parents in Tijuana, Mexico by providing resources for quality, culturally appropriate healthcare, empowering knowledge, and essential material items through community-based support systems.
