RGV Mother & Baby Coalition

Join a new and important network...

The RGV Mother & Baby Coalition

We are a network committed to improving access to options for women and families in the RGV. Become a member and be a part of spreading the word to every Valley mother and family about the valuable resources and support they have right here in South Texas. Join with us in promoting and protecting maternal and child health, prenatal care, "normal birth," childbirth education, doula services, breastfeeding, nutrition, parent and child bonding, recreation, and much more.

OUR MISSION:
To empower, support, and advocate for families in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. We aim to provide women and their families the tools to help them make informed decisions about pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, and the postpartum experience. To provide woman and their families compassionate support throughout the childbearing, birthing, and parenting experience. To help woman build confidence and trust in themselves, their body, and birth. To help them embrace pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, and the postpartum time. To help promote, support, and protect normal childbirth and breastfeeding.

Everyone in the community is welcomed to join and be a part of this wonderful local mother & baby support network. You don't have to be a mom or have a baby! We need support from people all over the community! Your participation can be as involved as you would like, and will be much appreciated.

At the moment the group will be started online, but will eventually become an active coalition. We will be having meetings and a newsletter starting in 2009!

Please consider joining today and pass on this information to others.
