PERINATAL EQUITY INITIATIVE: ADDRESSING RACIAL AND ETHNIC DISPARITIES IN MATERNAL INFANT HEALTH OUTCOMES
According to the World Health Organization, the U.S. has the highest infant and maternal mortality rates compared with any other high-income country. In California, Black infant mortality rates are two to four times higher than the rates for other racial and ethnic groups. In 2018, The Perinatal Equity Initiative (PEI) was signed into California State law to change these outcomes.
