Two Key Steps to Support Maternal and Child Health

Pregnant people and children – and particularly people of color – are disproportionately exposed to the health harms from climate change. And as a “threat multiplier,” climate change intersects with and amplifies existing disparities in baseline health, access to healthcare, and poverty. Learn more at our upcoming webinar.

We need your help today in calling on North Carolina's Federal Delegation to enact climate legislation that will protect the health of pregnant moms and future generations of North Carolinians.  

Action: Protect Pregnant Women From Climate Change

Take 60 seconds and urge your US Senator and House Representative to invest in the health of pregnant moms and future generations of North Carolinians.
