We at Healthy Moms- Healthy Births have entered into a contract with the Wyoming Department of Health-Maternal & Child Health Unit to reduce maternal mortality rates. This partnership will create a workgroup that will review and approve project applications for funding from around the state designed to lower Maternal Mortality, identify ways to target and share data coming out of the Maternal Mortality Review Committee (MMRC) and brainstorm other ways to support the prevention of maternal mortality outside of direct funding.
We are looking for several members to join this Maternal Mortality Prevention Work Group (MMPWG). The workgroup will be a statewide effort, with members from various communities. The goal of the MMWPG is to decrease maternal mortality in Wyoming. The workgroup will receive recommendations and data from the MMRC based on the maternal death cases they review. The goal of the MMWPG is to improve the dissemination, access to, and actionability of maternal mortality recommendations and data to drive opportunities for prevention.
Skillsets for recruited members should include but are not limited to, nursing and healthcare, social work and mental health, non-profit work in various communities, an accounting and/or financial background, governmental, or other practical or real experience in the areas of need for maternal mortality and morbidity.
