This crisis is not a result of individual choices or behaviors but rather a systemic issue that must be addressed through collective action. For TX health outcomes to improve, together we must address this maternal mortality crisis and advocate for better policies & resources.

Repetition is powerful and consistent framing is critical for large-scale social change. We've found that one of the strongest predictors of what people believe is the number of times they’ve heard it...so keep talking, keep framing, and keep pushing! #OnFrameFridays

"One of the simplest ways to win is to always connect the small things you do to the larger thing you hope to accomplish. 5 min can be spent working on something trivial or working on something life-changing. Most daily actions evaporate. Some accumulate." –@JamesClear
