The Voice of the Mother
Author: Jo Malin
Publisher: SIU Press
ISBN: 9780809322664
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
"Analyzing this narrative practice, Malin examines ten texts by women who seem particularly compelled to tell their mothers' stories. Each author is, in fact, able to write her own autobiography only by using a narrative form that contains her mother's story at its core. These texts raise interesting questions about autobiography as a genre and about a feminist writing practice that resists and subverts the dominant literary tradition.".

Book Description
Dozens of influential leaders have heard the pleas of mothers and children in developing countries. Raising their voices to inspire a movement to increase healthy pregnancies and lower death rates, Melinda Gates, Kay Warren, Bill Frist, Kimberly Williams Paisley, Michael W. Smith and more speak out about why people of faith must get involved in The Mother and Child Project: Raising Our Voices for Health and Hope. Almost 287,000 women die each year because of pregnancy and birth complications. Many orphans are left behind in the wake of this tragedy, and without a mother, many of those children die as well. If only enough people knew. We have the resources to prevent this crisis, but we must take action. Fortunately, Hope Through Healing Hands, a nonprofit organization promoting awareness for healthy mothers and children worldwide, is already spreading the word. Not only can we save lives, reduce abortions, and decrease death rates, but also we can help build healthier, thriving families and bring stability and sustainability to families, communities and nations. The question is, will you join them?

It is the last season of high school life for Nadia Turner, a rebellious, grief-stricken beauty. Mourning her mother's recent suicide, she takes up with the local pastor's son. Luke Sheppard is twenty-one, a former football star whose injury has reduced him to waiting tables at a diner. It's not serious-- until the pregnancy.

The Giving Voice to Mothers Study Report
Author: Saraswathi Vedam
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780888654847
Category : Childbirth
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Following an extensive participatory process, we co-designed a study to assess the quality of perinatal services in the United States as experienced by two national cohorts of understudied health service users: childbearing communities of color and those who planned community births. We received responses from 2700 people from all 50 United States to a survey (2016-2017) on experience of childbearing care. Participants were recruited by community partners who provided clinical or community health services via snowball sampling, social networking, and referrals from parents and consumer advocacy groups in various states. Two thirds of responses came from New York State, and 8% from California. Just over half of participants were between the ages of 31 and 39 years at the time of their most recent birth. Most (90%) were born in the US and spoke English at home. Within those respondents, 15% self-identified as Black, 10% as Hispanic, 2% as Indigenous, 4% as Asian, 2% as multiracial, and 67% as White. The majority (80%) had completed postsecondary education and obtained an associate or college degree. Half of respondents planned a community birth and half planned to give birth in a hospital. Half paid for maternity care via private insurance, and 14% used Medicaid/Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP).
