Remember the Mothers...

Did you know...that the United States ranks behind at least 40 other nations in maternal mortality rates according to the World Health Organization. In 2004, the United States reported 15.1 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births, up from 7.5 per 100,000 in 1982.

Also worth noting is that no improvement has been made since 1982 in reducing the maternal mortality rate in the United States.
