As a service to our members and other public health professionals, ASTHO regularly lists opportunities for funding, capacity building, and technical assistance. Check to see if these opportunities are a good fit for you or your organization.
Bridging Barriers in Maternal Health Access Community of Practice
The Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), with support from CDC, is launching the Bridging Barriers in Maternal Health Access Community of Practice (CoP). The CoP will bring together state health agency staff and Levels of Maternal Care (LoMC) leaders to address challenges in maternal health. Specifically, the CoP will focus on Levels of Maternal Care as a critical lever to address maternal morbidity and mortality. The CoP is designed to be a low-lift, high-value learning opportunity that supports participants through peer learning, technical assistance, access to subject matter experts, and contribution to a national resource.
There will be no direct funding available for participants. Travel and lodging will be covered in full for one representative per jurisdiction to attend an in-person convening in late January/early February 2026.
ASTHO Point of Contact: Ramya Flores and Lexie Giragosian, Maternal & Child Health Team, rac@astho.org. Please include “RFA: Bridging Barriers in Maternal Health Access CoP” in the subject line.
