🚨 STATE OF EMERGENCY: Mississippi is facing a devastating surge in infant deaths—3,527 babies have died before their first birthday since 2014. The infant mortality rate has climbed to 9.7 deaths per 1,000 live births, nearly double the U.S. average of 5.6—triggering an urgent public health emergency.

Standardizing maternal and infant care across the state

Eliminating “OB deserts” with new prenatal access in underserved counties

Expanding programs like “Healthy Moms, Healthy Babies” for at-risk families

Promoting safe sleep practices and home visiting support
