Rotary’s goal during Maternal and Child Health Month is to promote access to quality health care for mothers and children before, during, and after childbirth. The focus is not only on services today but on creating sustainable improvements that communities can maintain over time.

• Maternal and child health is viewed as foundational to stronger communities.
• Healthy mothers are more likely to have healthy children.
• Healthier children are more likely to attend school, grow into productive adults, and contribute to stable communities.

Atlanta West End recognizes July as Maternal and Child Health Month and honors Rotary’s emphasis on sustainable, community-centered approaches to improving health for mothers and children.
