This Project Grant award from the Health Resources and Services Administration's (HRSA) Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) under the Maternal and Child Health Federal Consolidated Programs (CFDA 93.110) will provide $800,000 from September 30, 2024 to September 29, 2027 to the National Healthy Start Association, Inc. (NHSA) to expand policy change resources and build policy change capacity in six local Healthy Start communities. The project aims to empower families and decision-makers to advocate for improving maternal and child health outcomes by: (1) training parents, family members, and community leaders to become effective leaders and advocates, (2) convening learning communities with stakeholders and people with lived experience, and (3) developing and disseminating informational resources. This project will support a community-driven, whole-of-government approach to addressing social determinants of health and promoting policy and systems change to reduce disparities in maternal and infant health outcomes.
