MAYA Organization Wrap-around support during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

Maya's programs are built around access, connection, knowledge, empowerment, and culturally-congruent mentorship. MAYA’s perinatal services are designed to support the goals of the Plan for a Healthy Allegheny to reduce overall maternal deaths, fetal and infant deaths, preterm and low-weight births, to promote safe sleep and breastfeeding, and to reduce racial disparities in these outcomes. In addition, we focus on maternal mental health and aim to reduce traumatic births and perinatal mood disorders.

🔥 Thank you to our Strike the Ember sponsors! 🔥

Our rooftop evening for maternal health and equity was made possible by an incredible group of partners who believe every mother deserves the care and support she needs. From the bottom of our hearts, MAYA thanks:

Allegheny County Health Department
The Birmingham Foundation
Duolingo
Jewish Healthcare Foundation
Magee-Womens Research Institute & Foundation

Because of your generosity, we are building a lasting bridge to maternal health and equity for the mothers and families in our BIPOC, Latina, and underserved communities. You didn't just sponsor an event, you helped fuel a movement. We are so grateful to have you in our corner.

Thank you for helping us Strike the Ember. đź’›

🔥 Come strike the ember with us.🔥

An ember doesn’t look like much.

But with intention, oxygen, and the right people around it…

It becomes a fire.

Strike the Ember represents that moment when an idea becomes action.

When a conversation becomes collaboration.

When one connection becomes a movement.

When people stop asking, “Who is going to fix this?”

…and start asking,

“What can we build together?”

Join us October 2 as we forge the bridge of maternal health and equity.

The ember is already there.

Now it’s time to strike it.

If you’ve been waiting for a reason to put on the good outfit, meet new people, enjoy a beautiful Pittsburgh rooftop, and invest your energy into something that matters…

This is it.
