Over the years, millions of women and infants have died during pregnancy and childbirth in India. There is no reason why a mother should die to give life, and why a child should die or be left an orphan at birth.
Our vision is to reduce the mother and infant mortality rates by ensuring that women have easy and affordable access to maternity care. We want to create a cadre of health workers – professional midwives – who can provide a continuum of care.
Join us in this mission and help provide care to every mother and child to survive and thrive by:
