Ohio Legislative Children’s Caucus Webinar

Addressing Racism and Social Determinants of Health to Promote Infant and Maternal Wellbeing

Register here

Not all Ohio moms and babies have equitable access to opportunities for long-term health and wellness. In fact, only five states have a higher Black infant mortality rate than Ohio, and despite a 10% decline in Ohio’s overall infant mortality rate since 2009, Ohio’s Black-white infant mortality disparity increased by 26% during the same time period. Institutional racism and inequitable access to critical resources and health services before, during, and after pregnancy persist and are contributing to poor maternal and infant health outcomes, especially for Black and Brown women and their children. Maternal mortality is rising in Ohio also, and research shows that many of these deaths are preventable, taking place often after pregnancy when Medicaid postpartum coverage ends. Ensuring that all women have access to adequate health care is essential for laying a healthy foundation for their children. Join the Ohio Legislative Children’s Caucus to discuss pervasive inequities in infant and maternal health and how Ohio can utilize Medicaid as a critical tool to increase the safety and vitality of all moms and babies in our state.

Webinar: The Workforce Behind the Workforce: Strengthen Child Care to Strengthen the Economy

Tickets

Apr 19 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm

Topic:

Ohio Legislative Children’s Caucus Webinar: The Workforce Behind the Workforce: Strengthen Child Care to Build Ohio’s Economy

Description:

Every Ohioan benefits from a stable and thriving child care system – especially our children. It is the “workforce behind the workforce”, the critical infrastructure that drives our state’s economy and allows parents and caregivers in to go to work while their children access high quality learning experiences in safe, caring environments. However, Ohio’s child care sector is in crisis. High quality, affordable child care options are often inaccessible, child care professionals (disproportionately women and women of color) earn on average $10 per hour, and the COVID-19 pandemic has greatly compromised our child care capacity, making it difficult for providers to keep their doors open. In this session, the Ohio Legislative Children’s Caucus will discuss how we can improve child care access for working families to strengthen Ohio’s child care system and our state economy today and into the future.
