The 2023 NPQIC Fall Summit "Upstream Solutions to Maternal Health Equity" will provide a foundational understanding of the current Black maternal health crisis and the landscape of Black maternal health in Nebraska. Sessions will equip healthcare teams with the most up-to-date practices around severe maternal morbidities, trauma-informed care, and chronic conditions and substance use in pregnancy. Providing evidence-based and equitable care to marginalized populations is critical for improving pregnancy health outcomes in NE.
