Today is Maternal Health Awareness Day, a time to recognize the importance of access to high-quality maternal care for families across Kentucky. We are proud to join Kentucky Perinatal Quality Collaborative (KyPQC) and partners across the Commonwealth in amplifying this message.

“Health care is local, and supporting all Kentuckians starts before birth,” said Molly Lewis, CEO of the Kentucky Primary Care Association. “When we work together across communities, hospitals, and primary care, we can expand access to high-quality care for parents and babies and ensure every family has the chance to thrive from the very beginning.”

Together with KyPQC and partners statewide, KPCA remains committed to strengthening systems of care that support families where they live.

Community health centers are more than a safety net—they’re a launchpad.

In this piece, KPCA CEO Molly Nicol Lewis highlights how Kentucky’s community health centers activate patients, remove barriers, and turn coverage into real, lasting health. When patients are empowered, communities thrive.

The gap between health care spending and outcomes should make us pause. Investing in patient activation is how a safety net becomes a launchpad.
