Episode Six: Perseverance in Puerto Rico

A new podcast for national conversations about maternity and women’s health care, Midwifing America highlights stories from providers and the women they serve to illustrate the state of maternity care. There is mounting evidence that we have a maternal health crisis in our country as we spend more, and have poorer outcomes, than other developed countries. Join us as we Reimagine Women's Healthcare. Sponsored by the Oregon Affiliate of the American College of Nurse-Midwives, with the help of Thacher Grant funding. All views expressed herein are our own.
