Healthy Start Visits Tallahassee

Our team members had the pleasure of meeting with Representative John Snyder at the Capital in Tallahassee to advocate for Healthy Start. We want to express our heartfelt gratitude for his unwavering advocacy for mothers and babies. His dedication to their well-being is truly commendable and makes a positive impact on our community. Thank you for your tireless efforts and commitment to creating a better future for families.

We extend our sincere appreciation to Senator Harrell for taking the time to sit with us before her important committee meetings and for her steadfast advocacy in support of maternal and infant health. Her dedication to ensuring the well-being of mothers and babies is both admirable and impactful. Thank you for championing our crucial cause, supporting our mission, and contributing to the health and prosperity of our community.

Impact100 Recipients Showcase

In 2020 during the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, our diaper pantry needed to become mobile to ensure babies could stay clean and healthy. In response, Impact100 quickly rose to the occasion and donated funding for our diaper van, allowing us to deliver diapers right to families' homes, keeping everyone safely socially distanced.

In 2022, Impact100 once again heard our call and chose us to be grant recipients to fund our MOM Mobile: Maternity On The Move, a mobile medical unit providing prenatal care in underserved areas.

Please join us alongside other grant recipients on February 3rd from 12PM to 3PM at Indian Riverside Park for Impact100s Grant Recipient Showcase.

Mom Group Is Back!

New year, same mom group! We are so incredibly grateful for all of you who have continued to share and attend our mom group, and am looking forward to another incredible year of building a village full of support!

Join us next Saturday, January 25th at 11AM for the first mom group of the year! For questions, please contact Anastasia Anderson at aanderson@mchealthystart.org or call 772-678-8360.
