The statistics are there: we’re experiencing a maternal mortality rate crisis, especially in ethnic minorities. It’s more critical now than ever that we stay committed to efforts to improve maternal health outcomes. By knowing what’s at stake, collectively we are reminded that we can’t afford to lose any more ground.

How are we feeling on week 3, blazers? Is your energy wearing off or still going strong?

If you’re feeling like things aren’t going like you wanted them to, we’re here to tell you that falling means you’re trying, and it’s all part of the process. Dust off your knees or lie down on the ground for a little longer, but whatever you do, make sure you keep on going. You don’t have to struggle alone, there are many resources on campus available to you!

If things are going great, we’re happy for you! Remember to check on your peers and lend a hand if you see them struggle 💚
