Our Mission

To provide leadership in partnership with public and private organizations to improve the physical and mental health, safety, and well-being of the maternal and child health population in Nevada including children with special health care needs. 

Our Approach

Children are our future. The Nevada Statewide Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Coalition believes that every child deserves a healthy start - it's the best gift a community can give to its children. The Nevada Statewide Maternal and Child Health Coalition works with community partners to advocate for preconception health, developmental screening, breastfeeding, physical activity, and more for mothers and children. 

How We Help

To better serve the entire state of Nevada, the MCH Coalition offers membership, resources and support in Northern and Southern Nevada. Together, both coalitions serve to nurture and enhance the knowledge and capacity of the healthcare community to better meet the needs of families. 

The NV Statewide MCH Coalition subgrant is supported by the Nevada State Division of Public and Behavioral Health.
