JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - For Black Maternal Health Week, metro area moms received the tools and resources they need for better pregnancy and mental health. Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority’s Rho Lambda Omega chapter and the Institute for the Advancement of Minority Health hosted Healthy Moms, Healthy Futures. Organizers focused on baby CPR, maternal health, mental health, SIDS education, and more, providing education for new moms and moms-to-be. “This is important to make sure that we come out in the community to educate moms about how to have healthy pregnancies. If they have questions about what is going on during their pregnancy, they have someone to talk to and know how to advocate for themselves,” Latasha Rice, program manager for maternal and child health with the Institute for the Advancement of Minority Health, said. Rice said she hopes mothers utilize and understand the information they are given to help promote better health in Mississippi.
