Article: Rural maternity care deserts are a climate issue across the U.S. — these women want to write the playbook to fix them

PARC Communications Coordinator Anayra Maldonado Quiles was recently featured in an article about the intersection between climate justice and reproductive health access. You can read her quote, and the full article, here.

At PARC, Anayra leads the Pregnancy and Abortion Care in Environmental Disaster (PACED) project. This health services research focuses on the experiences of key-informants, including birth doulas, abortion doulas, OB-GYNs, nurses, and midwives, who were involved in providing pregnancy care to North Carolina residents during and after Hurricane Helene. We will be publishing a project report soon!
