Share Your Experience
Stories and lived experiences can help strengthen maternal healthcare conversations, advocacy efforts, and systems improvement work.
Your Experience Can Help Shape Better Maternal Healthcare
MoMMAs Voices helps moms and families turn lived experience into meaningful participation, advocacy, and partnership — with pathways that honor your story, your pace, and your readiness.
Our philosophy
Built With Moms and Families, Not Just For Them
Traditional patient engagement often asks people to share experiences without creating meaningful opportunities for partnership, participation, or leadership.
MoMMAs Voices works alongside moms, families, healthcare organizations, and community partners to strengthen lived experience integration across maternal healthcare systems and improvement efforts.
"People are often invited to share — but not invited to lead."

Start here
There's No Wrong Way to Begin
You don't have to feel “ready.” You don't have to have the right words. And you never have to share more than you choose. Wherever you are — still in the thick of it, or years down the road — there's a place for you here, and you set the pace.
-
Your pace, always
Move slowly, pause, or step back whenever you need to. Nothing here is on a clock.
-
Your story, your choice
You decide what to share, when, and with whom. Your story belongs to you.
-
Support, not pressure
This is an invitation, never an expectation. We walk beside you — we don't push.
When You're Ready for Deeper Partnership
Some moms and families choose to deepen their involvement through structured learning, leadership development, and partnership opportunities within maternal healthcare improvement efforts.
The Certified Patient Family Partner program supports participants in developing the communication skills, systems understanding, and partnership readiness needed for meaningful engagement in maternal healthcare improvement.
"Partnership readiness requires more than storytelling."
