HHS Launches Postpartum Maternal Health Collaborative

Secretary Becerra announced that six states will participate in a new collaborative effort to address postpartum mortality

In conjunction with this new HHS collaborative, the National Governors Association launched their Improving Maternal and Child Health in Rural America State and Territory Policy Learning Collaborative.
