The Michigan Council for Maternal and Child Health (MCMCH) is a diverse organization comprised of hospital systems, statewide organizations, local public health advocates, and individuals dedicated to advancing maternal and child health in Michigan. Since 1983, MCMCH has been advocating for public policies that enhance maternal and child health outcomes through prevention programs, access to care, and adequate funding reimbursement for providers.
MCMCH has played a pivotal role in shaping and influencing state policies affecting women, infants, children, and families in Michigan. With a focus on bettering public policy, MCMCH collaborates with administrators, legislators, policy-makers, coalitions, communities, and advocates to establish or expand policies and programs that have a meaningful impact on maternal and child health. Additionally, through their Birth Equity Education Project (BEEP), MCMCH aims to promote policy improvements in specific areas of maternal and infant health, with a particular focus on addressing health inequities for black and indigenous women and babies.
