Service + Research =Dear MCC Supporter,

MCC’s roots are planted in the understanding that service and ad-

vocacy are deeply connected. However, what makes the things we

advocate for and the services offered to pregnant women and fami-

lies successful is research and evaluation. In the beginning, we knew

there were things we didn’t know, existing information was limited

and didn’t account for the needs of pregnant and parenting women

in underserved communities. We also understood that the voices of

these women and parents were not only important as we developed

our programs and continued to advocate on their behalf, but their

voices would be important in indentifying research priorities.

For those reasons we’ve built our capacity to conduct research.

We address issues related to the needs of diverse groups of parents

like the parenting experience of mothers after release from jail. We

conduct focus groups with immigrant mothers on their experiences

in raising children. We implement comprehensive community

assessments to stay at the forefront of emerging trends. We

evaluate our programs to learn if education on breastfeeding and

HIV Prevention have contributed to improved knowledge and

behavior change. We utilize technology and text messaging as

tools for education and support.

Families provide feedback that show us our programs are valuable

by referring friends and family. However, due to budget cuts

exacerbated by sequestration, we continue to have long waiting

lists for our programs. Our ability to serve is only limited by our

resources to do so.

So this year, as you are evaluating your philanthropic contributions,

I hope that you too will stand with us by contributing generously.

Be assured that you will be making a difference and that MCC has

demonstrated impact in strengthening families and in inspiring change.

With sincere thanks,

JoAnne Fischer

This year we demonstrated the impact of our programs by conducting a rigorous analysis of the MOMobile program. We have a strong and statistically significant impact on our clients when measuring perinatal depression, breastfeeding, and safe sleep practices. Our analysis, validated by Georgetown University and Johns Hopkins University, found:

55%Reduction in the number of clients at risk for perinatal depression

70%Breastfeeding initiation by our clients, compared to 43% in comparable programs

90%Of our clients practice safe sleep by laying their babies to sleep on their back compared to 65% of women across Pennsylvania

Demonstrated Impact

For example, creating a safe sleep environment takes more than just a crib...Seeing the impact of our programs inspires us to do more!

Serving 90,000 families over three decades is impressive.

Having those families make positive behavioral changes that

decrease depression and increase breastfeeding rates and

the numbers of babies sleeping safely, is extraordinary. Since

1980, we’ve honored our commitment to improve the health

and wellbeing of mothers and their babies through health

education and support.

Through extensive and longstanding community partnerships,

research studies, and public-private collaborations, we’ve

discovered how to help women and families make significant

behavioral changes, particularly in breastfeeding and safe sleep.

The inspiring results of our program study reflect our ability

to effectively support our clients emotional wellbeing.

Our achievements also demonstrate our ability to translate

maternal and child research, along with community, staff,

and client feedback into programs that have a profound

impact on the clients and families served.

Beyond the statistics, we were able to illustrate something

even greater. When we focus our efforts on a particular set

of issues and priorities, we achieve positive results.

Page 7: 2013 Maternity Care Coalition Annual Report

Research is more than just numbers and labs, it’s people too...Building a bridge between the community and the university is

an important part of demonstrating impact. Our scientific studies

link our academic partners to the community and empower

community members to identify and solve their own problems.

Our Research Team collaborates with faculty from over ten

local, national and international universities to examine healthy

weight management, perinatal depression, motherhood after

incarceration, and the parenting needs of immigrant parents.

We lead a Maternal and Child Health Research Consortium

to bring together researchers from the around the region to

network, collaborate and help us identify ways to improve the

health and wellbeing of women, babies, and their families.

With continued funding from Aetna Foundation and the

University of Pennsylvania we were able to increase the

number of participants in our Postpartum Weight Management

Study. Study participants achieved weight loss, decreased

depression risk and increased self-efficacy in our preliminary

analysis. In our first randomized trial, some clients participate

in the study intervention while others participate at a later

date. By doing this, we are able to compare those joining the

“six week challenge” to those who don’t. This study is a

community-academic partnership with faculty members at

the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine.

What is it like to be a mother after being in jail? Through our

Motherhood and Reentry study we will gain better understanding

on what it is like for a mother to reunite with her children after

being released from jail. We are interviewing mothers who

participated in our MOMobile at Riverside program when

they’ve returned to tell their stories about mothering, in and

after jail. This study is a partnership with the University of

Pennsylvania, Rutgers University and LaSalle University.

2350NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO RECEIVED SAFE SLEEP EDUCATION AND A CRIB

Page 9: 2013 Maternity Care Coalition Annual Report

Clients relate to Advocates like they’re a trusted family friend.For over two decades, our MOMobile® program has provided

home visiting support services and education to vulnerable

communities across Southeastern Pennsylvania. Our program

uses the Partners for Healthy Babies Curriculum created by

Florida State University (FSU). Advocates were trained in best

practices on how to use the curriculum to achieve the greatest

impact with clients. This year, we partnered with Georgetown

University and FSU to conduct a two-year evaluation of the

effectiveness of the curriculum.

Creating a safe sleep environment is more than just a crib. When

Cribs For Kids provided 2400 families with cribs, we also gave

them vital information about safe sleep. Each year, in addition

to the City of Philadelphia, many individuals, corporations,

and foundations support our program. This year employees at

Einstein Healthcare Network and the Hospital of University of

Pennsylvania joined the Women’s Auxiliary at Thomas Jefferson

University Hospitals to raise money to purchase cribs.

The MOMobile is constantly evolving to reflect the changing

needs of the families and communities we serve. In October

2012, our Healthy Families America MOMobile, expanded

into North Penn and Indian Valley in Montgomery County.

Within a few short months, we successfully identified partner

organizations, healthcare providers, and individuals who could

benefit from the services we offer. The program has reached

capacity and has an ever growing waiting list.

We are committed to improving the health outcomes of women

during pregnancy. Our newest program, Safe Start MOMobile,

focuses on reducing maternal mortality and morbidity in North

Philadelphia. Advocates will pilot the program in the upcoming

year and will offer home visiting and labor support to pregnant

women who have risk factors such as diabetes, high blood

pressure, and obesity.

A baby’s first food should be the best nature has to offer!We are committed to ensuring that women have the support

needed to successfully breastfeed their babies. Hospitals play a

major role in this by creating and implementing policies that

encourage and support nursing mothers. We lead the Philadelphia

Multi-Hospital Breastfeeding Promotion Task Force, helping

birthing hospitals in the city become Baby Friendly. To date,

five out of the six have registered with Baby-Friendly USA to

become designated as a baby-friendly hospital.

With continued support from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation we

implemented an innovative program model to address breast-

feeding disparities in North Philadelphia. The North Philadelphia

Breastfeeding Program trains members from the community to

become Doulas and breastfeeding educators, provides services

and support to families, and partners with Temple University

Hospital to host breastfeeding support groups.

Integral to our programs success is the ongoing support from

the North Philadelphia Breastfeeding Advisory Committee (BAC).

Along with staff, members of BAC facilitated a free 20-session

Community Doula Training Program to 16 ethnically diverse

and multi-generational women. We’ve matched 23 women

from North Philadelphia with Community Doulas and all have

initiated breastfeeding.

Employers play an important role in the success of breastfeed-

ing women. We continue to provide free technical assistance

to area businesses interested in establishing a breastfeeding

friendly workplace. This year, three organizations agreed to

develop lactation support programs for nursing employees.

Page 13: 2013 Maternity Care Coalition Annual Report

Some of the best lessons are taught by parents at home. Research confirms it. Early Head Start (EHS) has a positive

impact on school success, family self-sufficiency, and child

development. As the largest provider of EHS services in

Pennsylvania, we strive to maintain an exemplary program that

not only influences families now, but in the future. Our School

Readiness initiative prepares children for kindergarten by

establishing goals across five domains including social, cognitive,

emotional and physical development. Through quarterly

analysis, we can identify trends and adjust the program to

best fit the needs of our families.

We continuously seek ways to improve our program and provide

children and families with the best resources in early education.

We were selected by the United Way of Greater Philadelphia

and Southern New Jersey to participate in “Success by 6,”

an initiative with the goal of increasing the number of quality

childcare centers in the area. With their help, we will achieve

Keystone Stars Level 3 at our South Philadelphia site.

In April, the Pennsylvania State Legislature officially recognized

Week of the Young Child. This week honors young children and

thanks the adults who play important roles in their lives. To help

us celebrate, State Representatives Jordan Harris and Matthew

Bradford visited and read to children in our South Philadelphia

and Norristown sites.

Parents with children enrolled in our program provide great

support to our staff and we honor their dedication. During our

Driving Fatherhood Awards Dinner, we recognized six outstand-

ing men. Stephen Kearney, Anthony McCall, Antonio Prouty,

Syarif Syaifulloh, Hermawan Tanzil and Juan Yanez have shown

a deep commitment to EHS by volunteering and serving as role

models to their children, other parents and the community.

Care Act. Under the law,

includes eight preventative

services for women and must

include maternity coverage.

Page 15: 2013 Maternity Care Coalition Annual Report

We are the voice of families and we empower them to advocate.Access to medical care is a critical factor in improving maternal

and child health. We led efforts in the implementation of the

Affordable Care Act (ACA). We defined what the maternal

standard should be for the essential health benefits part of the

law. In partnership with several organizations, we launched

the Cover the Commonwealth Campaign supporting Medicaid

Expansion in Pennsylvania.

All insurance models are not created equal. This year we

examined different insurance models and published and widely

distributed reports with our findings. The Price of Being A

Woman: Part One and Two found that only 20% of insurance

plans available in Pennsylvania offered maternity coverage

and a smoking 40 year old male paid less for insurance than

a nonsmoking 40 year old woman.

Our work monitoring maternal and child health issues position

us as experts in the field. In November, John George of the

Philadelphia Business Journal released a series called Labor

Pains where he examined the roles hospitals, managed care

and community organizations play in improving the quality and

access to care for women in Philadelphia. Our work addressing

regional hospital closures was featured in the series.

Early Learning programs are critical. The impact of sequestration

was felt across the Commonwealth. We identified the impact

of the cuts on families in our region and produced a video

about the importance of Early Head Start services. The

video generated attention for the Week of the Young Child.

We worked with networks of constituencies to advocate for

quality early education services, worked with parents to attend

rallies and wrote letters of support for quality early learning

programs.

Fundraising determines the number of families we can serve...Despite the challenges we faced this year due to sequestration,

with continued support from a range of funders, we were still

able to serve more than 5000 families.

Kicking-off our annual Celebrating Mothers Campaign in March,

Sheinelle Jones of Fox 29 led over 300 MCC supporters on a

“Stroll Through Britain.” Guests enjoyed performances by the

University of Arts and Morris Dancers, British-inspired dishes

and a royalty-themed photo booth. John George of the Philadelphia

Business Journal and text4baby were honored with our Spirit

of Motherhood Award for advancing our mission in unique and

innovative ways. Visit our website to learn more.

In May, The MCC Carnival arrived at the Radnor Valley Country

Club. Our youngest supporters enjoyed a morning of food, arts

and crafts, carnival games, and prizes. Over 150 children and

their families attended, making this our largest children’s

brunch to date.

More than 1,000 women around the U.S. and the world were

honored during this year’s campaign that culminated on

Mother’s Day. Raising just over $206,000, this was the most

successful Celebrating Mothers Campaign thus far.

We honor dads too. Following the 8th annual Celebrating Fathers

Golf Classic in June we recognized men in the community who

are advancing the role of fatherhood. Former NFL Player

Raheem Brock, Philadelphia Councilman Kenyatta Johnson,

Rev. Jefty Pietersen of Impacting Your World Ministries,

and Larry Woody of Focus on Families were honored for

inspiring fatherhood in the lives of others with the Driving

Fatherhood Award.

When asked about working with

MCC, Mary Lou Zwann of Wells

Fargo said, “The partnership

with MCC has given us the

opportunity to provide holistic

support to a cause that is

important to our members;

maternal and child health.”

Page 19: 2013 Maternity Care Coalition Annual Report

When you give your resources and time, our impact is greater.Supporting MCC is more than just giving money. Because of

donors who generously give their time, resources and connec-

tions we are able to maximize our impact and meet the needs of

clients. We are grateful to the many volunteers who support us

throughout the year.

One such volunteer is Helene Van Hoeven, who has coordinated

our Family Gift Connection Program for more than four years.

Each year, she and her team of elves process gifts from individ-

ual donors and corporations that are distributed to nearly 400

children enrolled in our programs for the holiday season.

Volunteers help make our events successful year after year.

Students from Lower Merion High School’s buildOn program

provided staffing support for The MCC Carnival. With over 40

volunteers, buildOn made up a majority of the volunteers for the

event. Students facilitated arts and crafts and carnival games

for children ages 2 to 10.

Our relationships with our corporate partners are deeper than

the dollar. Members of Wells Fargo Womens Team Member

Network (WTMN) wanted to share their time, talents and skills

to have a greater impact on the community. WTMN adopted

our Baby Closet, a donated space that houses in-kind donations

of baby and maternity related items at Ardmore Presbyterian

Church. They, along with staff and other volunteers, repaired

walls, added new flooring, painted, and brought furniture to

organize boxes of clothes, including a generous donation

from Gymboree.

For every federal dollar we receive for our Early Head Start

program, we must raise 25 cents in match. This can come in

the form of cash, donated services, and supplies. Parents of

children enrolled in our EHS program also help us reach our

match goals by volunteering in our classrooms. Visit our

website to learn about volunteer opportunities.

What do our supporters in the community say about MCC?“MCC is at the forefront of maternal health issues and I’m proud

to be associated with an organization that is creating positive,

meaningful change for new mothers and their families.”

– Regine Metellus, Board President, Carnation Club Member

“I continue to give, and support MCC in many ways because of

the great work it does in providing vulnerable women, young

children and families with critical services and hope to move

forward in their lives.”

– Dr. Nathalie Bartle, Former Board, Carnation Club Member

“From helping with breastfeeding positions to formulating public

policy positions, MCC efficiently and effectively shows up for

families who are pregnant and caring for young children. I know

that my support helps MCC continue to show up where it

matters most.”

– Cathie Harvey, Carnation Club Member

“We continue to support MCC long after I left the Board

because I know first-hand that it is a well-run organization,

doing essential work to interrupt the cycle of poverty in this city,

with effective, innovative strategies and exquisite execution.”

– Tobey Dichter, Former Board, Carnation Club Member

“I am proud to serve as a member of MCC’s Carnation Club.

With less and less funding available from the federal and state

government, we all need to step up and make sure all families

have access to maternity care. I particularly love the MOMobile

program that brings wellness programs where they are needed

most, in the homes of new and future mothers.”

– Ken Weinstein, Carnation Club Member
