The National Academies will organize and conduct two public webinars to explore strategies for improving maternal and infant health in rural areas of the United States. The webinars will highlight evidence-informed solutions for diagnosis and care spanning the period before pregnancy, throughout prenatal and perinatal care, and during the postpartum and early infancy stages, with attention to system capacity, access to services, policy approaches, and the community conditions that influence health outcomes in rural settings.
