August District Meeting Talking Points
"I am here to advocate because my son was born 10 weeks preterm due to a high-risk and complex pregnancy. While I received excellent care, many women do not have access to or receive the care I was fortunate to have."
EMILY COLLINS
March of Dimes Advocate
"I received a miracle when my son survived being given 50/50 odds to survive birth. I am here to demand change because 7 million women deserve to have a healthy pregnancy and not face what I did."
LAURA VARGAS
March of Dimes Advocate
"I am here to be a voice for the voiceless. I want to make healthy pregnancies and babies a reality for all women, no matter where they live, their level of education, access to care and race."
