The whole world paused this morning.
Do you know why? Because an 8 year old’s tank was empty.
The boys had already started their school day at their desks and I was preparing to leave for work when I noticed my littlest standing in the bathroom wiping his face.
I paused at the door and asked if he was okay. He looked up with tears silently dripping and shook his head. When I questioned if something happened, again he shook his head.
So I sat on the side of the tub and pulled him in my lap. I told him sometimes our heart tanks feel empty and need to be refilled.
He cried into my chest and I held tight.
I asked if he could feel my love filling him up?
A nod, and tears stopped...
I waited a minute...
‘Has it reached your toes yet?’
He shook his head no...
‘Okay man. We will take as long as you need. Work doesn’t matter right now. School isn’t important either. This right here, is the most important thing today, okay? Filling you back to the top. Is that good?’
*nods*
One more minute...
‘Is your heart full of mamas love now?’
‘Yeah...’
*looks in his eyes* I see it shining in there, you’re full to the top, and you’re smiling!
Y’all. You may not be 8- you may be 28, 38, 48 or whatever- but ALL of us run on empty just like he did. His weekend was so busy and so full and his little soul was just dry!!!
We all have to pause, and take a moment to refill with the good things. Scripture, prayer, sunshine, worship, song, laughter, friends, hugs. Refill your empty, or you’ll find those emotions (tears, anger, snappy words) overflowing with no reason why.
Take a moment. Refill. It’s the most important part of your day!

💡 Mental health inequities carry a high cost. This includes more difficulty managing chronic conditions, a hindered ability to work and eventual death. If left unaddressed, mental health inequities could lead to about $14 trillion (US) in excess costs between now and 2040, according to analysis.

“People of color, women, and low income people face the biggest inequities when it comes to and accessing mental health care and that can affect their physical health”
— Samantha Fields of Marketplace Morning Report

Being aware of also includes the cost of inequities. From individual burdens to employers to public health concerns, doing the right thing to promote health equity is imperative to all communities.

National Faith in Action Guide on Maternal Health !


The National Faith in Action Guide on Maternal Health is a comprehensive resource that provides vital information to pregnant women, their families, healthcare providers, and faith and community leaders. The guide offers a detailed course of action to combat mortality and morbidity rates and reduce racial inequities in maternal health by addressing the factors contributing to maternal mortality, including intimate partner violence (IPV), mental health challenges, and substance use disorder (SUD). Furthermore, the guide examines the different factors and circumstances that can affect a pregnant person's decision to seek care. It provides guidance on recognizing maternal warning signs and taking early action, along with a detailed outline of the steps that faith and community leaders can take to address the maternal health crisis.

If you are planning an upcoming event and would like free copies of this impactful guide, please email us at partnerships (@) hhs.gov and let us know how many copies you need in increments of 50.

Readout from the 2nd Annual Black Maternal Health Outcomes Matter:
Keeping Hope Alive! Summit


The 2nd Annual Black Maternal Health: Keeping Hope Alive! Summit was not just a gathering, but a powerful platform that united leading change champions in maternal health. Crucial discussions took place, and strategies were formulated to address the racial inequities in maternal health. The summit was a testament to the commitment and dedication of the participants, and it marked a significant step forward in the fight for improved maternal health outcomes.

HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra spoke fervently about the need for consistent, year-round efforts to improve the outcomes of Black maternal health through an equity lens. Joining him were Representative Robin Kelly, Representative Alma Adams, and Representative Lauren Underwood, who have worked tirelessly to launch the Black Maternal Health Caucus, which aims to elevate the Black maternal health crisis and introduce the CARE For Moms Act, that will support the maternal health workforce, promote access to prenatal and postpartum care, and provide the resources that moms and babies need to thrive. This day they announced that over $100 million, including key Omnibus funding, has been allocated, reflecting bipartisan recognition of the urgent need to address the maternal health crisis.

The day’s discussions began with those who had lived experiences of mental health struggles sharing their stories of inspiration and recovery. They discussed the support they received, such as therapy, support groups, and holistic approaches. The keynote speaker, Kimberly Seals Allers, shared her powerful testimony of the disrespectful care she and so many other Black mothers receive during childbirth. Her experience led her to create the IRTH app, which is a review and rating app for Black and Brown women to find and leave reviews on maternity care. Dr. Phyllis Dennery from March of Dimes discussed the alarming statistics of the maternal and infant health crisis affecting Black and Brown mothers, but gave hope by sharing the advocacy work being done, such as shaping national and state policies and implementing impactful programs.

The Intersection of IPV (Intimate Partner Violence), SUD (Substance Use Disorder), and Syphilis discussed the alarming rise of these issues, but also provided prevention strategies such as teaching safe and healthy relationship skills and addressing untreated perinatal mental health and SUD. The day concluded with best practices and innovative models to improve maternal health outcomes, where speakers shared strategies for improvement like community-informed program development, actively seeking community perspectives, with proven data of reducing maternal and infant mortality and showed the audience how, through replication, we are making a difference!
