Get the CDC Educational Resources You’re Missing on the AWHONN Website

Access to accurate, science-based information is essential for nurses, individuals, and communities to make informed health care decisions.

As a professional organization for perinatal and women’s health nurses, we are alarmed by reports of suppressed health information on maternal mortality and other health epidemics on public sites like the CDC.

Suppressing vital health information endangers individuals, erodes public trust, and disproportionately harms vulnerable communities.

We urge policymakers to uphold transparency and ensure all communities have access to the facts they need for their well-being.
