Celebrating Partners Affecting Change in Our Communities

We’re proud to announce a groundbreaking partnership between AWHONN and our Visionary Strategic Alliance Partner Huggies® Brand®, in Family Dollar stores throughout the U.S., that demonstrates our shared commitment to providing crucial resources to families. Together, during April 2024, we are launching a campaign to distribute AWHONN’s POST-BIRTH Warning Signs, which will be prominently displayed in the diaper aisles of more than 3,000 Family Dollar stores nationwide.

These vital resources highlight key warning signs postpartum mothers can watch for after childbirth, including fever, excessive bleeding, and severe headaches during the 12 months after birthing. Research shows moms can experience complications related to birth for up to a year. These signs could indicate a serious health issue requiring immediate attention. A QR code directs individuals to the information and advises on the level of care needed—whether a call to a health care provider or returning to the hospital during this critical time.

Join us and Huggies® Brand ® in this important initiative to support new families and promote health and safety for mothers and newborns across the country.
