SUMMARY:CDC Listening Session: Maternal Health and Tribal Maternal Mortality Review
DESCRIPTION:December 4 at 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm Eastern\nRegister \nThe CDC Division of Reproductive Health’s Enhancing Reviews and Surveillance to Eliminate Maternal Mortality (www.cdc.gov/ERASEMM) program supports maternal mortality review committees (MMRCs) to identify and review deaths during and within a year of pregnancy\, including documenting prevention opportunities. CDC works with MMRCs to improve review processes that inform recommendations for preventing future deaths. \nExisting reviews include deaths during and within a year of pregnancy among American Indian and Alaska Native persons. However\, there are no Tribal MMRCs. Tribal MMRCs could adapt MMRC processes to reflect community priorities and culturally appropriate approaches to maternal mortality prevention; have direct access to their data and determine the use of their data; and provide recommendations relevant to the community made by a tribally appointed committee to prevent pregnancy-related mortality. \nThe CDC would like to learn about Tribally led maternal health improvement work from Tribal leaders\, Tribal citizens\, Urban Indian Organizations\, Tribal health care providers\, Tribal serving organizations\, and others working in Tribal maternal health\, to inform a sustainable funding initiative for Tribal Nations and Tribal serving organizations. \nYour feedback is valuable and they are interested in learning about: \n\nYour experiences with promoting maternal health in the communities where you live and/or serve and opportunities you see for improvement.\nInformation and data about maternal health that you currently use and important gaps.\nConsiderations for conducting a review of deaths during or within one year of pregnancy in Tribal communities.
