Preview | Maternal Health Disparities | ncIMPACT | PBS North Carolina

Black mothers and babies are dying at disproportionate rates across the country. It’s a problem that has gotten worse in the past few decades. Numbers from the World Health Organization show that maternal mortality rates more than doubled in the US from 1990 to 2013. ncIMPACT explores local solutions that are working to give black mothers a voice.
