Breaking Through with Kristin Rowe-Finkbeiner (Powered by MomsRising)

On the radio show this week, we cover the new 2024 Care Matters: Care Report Card, grading each state’s care policies and infrastructure – and tracking what’s going on in your state; then we dive into the importance of persistently fighting for reproductive justice and why the bizarre IVF ruling in Alabama isn’t about embryos; after that we hear from a nationally recognized CEO of a major brand, Argent, about motherhood and change; and we close the show covering the importance of lifting maternal mental health – and sharing the new maternal mental health hotline: 1-833-TLC-MAMA (1-833-852-6226).

 

*Special guests include: Jaimie Worker, Caring Across Generations, @CaringAcrossGen; Leah Jones, SisterSong, @SisterSong_WOC; Sali Christeson, Argent, @argent; and Gina Arias, MomsRising / MamasConPoder, @MomsRising/@MamasConPoder
