United Way’s nonprofit partners stand UNITED, working to address our community’s greatest challenges. We are proud to announce our new partner, Maternity Care Coalition (MCC), a community-driven nonprofit organization with a legacy of over 40 years dedicated to maternal and child health.

Serving communities in Pennsylvania and Delaware, MCC is on a mission to improve the health and well-being of pregnant women, parenting families and young children, especially those impacted by racial and social inequities. MCC’s mission is to improve the health and well-being of pregnant women and parenting families and enhance school readiness for children 0—3. They achieve this through direct service, advocacy, and research, in collaboration with individuals, families, providers, and communities.

MCC envisions a future where parents impacted by racial and social inequities can birth with dignity, parent with autonomy and raise babies who are healthy, growing and thriving. We are proud to welcome MCC as a partner and look forward to working together to promote maternal and child health in our communities.
