3rd Annual 'Say Her Name' 5K: A Walk for Maternal Justice

Join Mother, Baby & Beyond for our 3rd Annual 'Say Her Name' 5K & Family Fun Day as we come together to honor mothers we've lost to preventable maternal deaths while celebrating life, resilience, and hope.`

Maternal deaths are rising in the U.S., and more than 80% are preventable. This community-centered event is dedicated to addressing maternal health disparities through education, advocacy, and connection to community resources and support. Together, we honor the lives of mothers lost, amplify their stories, and support ongoing efforts to strengthen women's health initiatives focused on improving outcomes for mothers and babies.

This family-friendly event creates space to walk in solidarity and advocate for healthier futures for all mothers and babies. Whether you run, walk, or cheer, your participation sends a powerful message.

Walk with us. Learn with us. Advocate with us.
