We are excited to share that the ITAVFoundation has been awarded a mini grant from the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, Division of Maternal, Child, and Family Health to support our ongoing work to improve maternal and infant health outcomes in Philadelphia.

This grant will directly support our annual Maternal Support and Education Day, a signature initiative designed to empower, educate, and uplift pregnant and parenting individuals—particularly within underserved communities. As we prepare for our 2026 program, this funding will allow us to expand our outreach, provide vital resources, and ensure a meaningful and supportive experience for every participant.

At ITAVF, we believe it truly takes a village to nurture and protect mothers and babies. We are honored to be recognized as part of the collective effort to reduce inequities in maternal and infant mortality and improve community-based support.

We thank the Philadelphia Department of Public Health for their continued investment in grassroots organizations that are committed to building healthier futures.

Stay tuned for more updates on our planning for Maternal Support and Education Day 2026.
