to our staff earlier this year at Celebrating Mothers Brunch 2026!

Celebrating Mother's Brunch may be one of our biggest moments of the year, but celebrating and supporting mothers, babies, and families is what our team does every day. 💜

From connecting families to resources and providing support to advocating for better systems and creating moments of joy in our communities, our staff is behind the work that makes a difference all year long.

So today, we're throwing it back to some of the incredible people who continue to celebrate families and birthing people year-round.

Want to do meaningful work, make an impact, and be part of a team that celebrates birthing people every day? Maybe there's a place for you on Team MCC. 💜

Thank you Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon for the important roundtable conversation last week.

MCC staff, along with other parents and advocates, met together with the Congresswoman to discuss "Moms Feeling the Squeeze". We valued the opportunity to discuss the real economic challenges families are facing, and to tie these issues to policy solutions.

Thank you to Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon for being a champion for parents and families, and MomsRising.org for hosting this vital conversation.

September is Sexual Health Awareness Month! 💜

Sexual health is an important part of overall health and well-being. It's essential to have the information, resources, and care you need to make informed decisions about your body and your health.

At Maternity Care Coalition, we're here to support you with resources, including reproductive health education, STI testing and care, cancer screenings, menopause services, and more.

Let's make sexual health conversations more open, accessible, and stigma-free! 🫶

September is both National Recovery Month and a time to celebrate the strength of families and communities! 💜

Recovery is a journey that no one should have to navigate alone. This National Recovery Month, we're recognizing the courage, resilience, and strength of individuals and families impacted by substance use and the importance of compassionate, judgment-free support.

Through MOMobile® Rapid Engagement, Maternity Care Coalition connects families with resources, support, and care that meet them where they are. As Ronika's story shows, having someone in your corner can make a meaningful difference.

Today is International Overdose Awareness Day, a time to raise awareness about overdose, honor the lives lost without stigma, acknowledge the grief of loved ones, and share resources for support.

At MCC, we understand that life's challenges can affect pregnancy, the postpartum period, and parenting. Our Behavioral Health services support families and parents who are impacted by substance use, mental health, trauma, incarceration, and perinatal loss.

Our services include individual and family therapy, in-home and virtual support, short-term grief therapy and support groups, referrals to additional resources, and rapid engagement for those impacted by substance use. No parent or family should have to navigate these challenges alone. MCC meets families with compassionate, professional, and non-judgmental support tailored to their individual needs and goals.

To connect with us, call 215-972-0700 and select option 2, or visit https://bit.ly/3X7BjET. We are here to support you.

National Breastfeeding Month is observed each August, and Black Breastfeeding Week is from August 25–31. While these observances highlight the importance of breastfeeding and chestfeeding, families deserve support all year long.

This year's theme, RISE: Resilience, Interdependence, Self-Determination, Empowerment, celebrates the strength of Black families and the importance of access to compassionate, culturally responsive care.

Through our Community Doula and Lactation Program, MCC provides free monthly virtual lactation workshops and one-on-one lactation support, both in person and virtually. We meet families where they are with education, resources, and non-judgmental support—whether they choose to breastfeed, chestfeed, use formula, or a combination.

To connect with a community doula or lactation consultant, visit https://bit.ly/3X7BjET or call 215-972-0700.
