Maternal Health Week~ Rooted in Justice and Joy~ Los Durantes Community

Join Vet-HER-an Enterprises, LLC on Wednesday, April 15th, for Policy & Systems Change Day—a powerful gathering focused on transforming maternal health through action, advocacy, and collaboration.

This day is designed to bring together community leaders, healthcare professionals, advocates, and policymakers to address the systemic barriers that impact maternal health outcomes across New Mexico.

Together, we will explore:

• Gaps within the current maternal health system
• Challenges faced by Black and Brown mothers navigating care
• Opportunities to improve access, quality, and equity in services
• Strategies for building stronger, more responsive systems of care

Participants will engage in meaningful discussions and a guided activation session, focused on answering the question:
“Where do we go from here?”

This is not just a conversation—it’s a call to action.
A space to align ideas, elevate solutions, and begin shaping the future of maternal health in our communities.

Come ready to listen, speak, and be part of real change.

10 gift baskets ( totaling $150.00 each)will be raffled for expectant mothers* Lunch will be served*
