Mothers United LIVE – Atlanta Ignites Powerful Dialogue on Maternal Health and Women's Health

Last night, The Atlanta Chamber of Mothers, in partnership with the national organization Mothers United, hosted a transformative evening as part of the 2025 Mothers United Tour—a groundbreaking campaign amplifying the voices of mothers and driving collective action for change. Held at The Lola, the event brought together a vibrant mix of local leaders, maternal health advocates, and families for an evening of connection, storytelling, and solutions.

From the moment the Mothers United Tour Bus opened its doors at 3:00 PM, attendees were immersed in a welcoming space filled with resources, interactive exhibits, and generous product giveaways from beloved mom-centric brands like Momcozy, Bobbie, Ritual, The Honest Company, and more. The bus served as a mobile hub for community-building, offering a space where mothers could share their stories, access support, and feel seen.

The heart of the evening was the panel discussion, moderated by Ky Lindberg of the Georgia Health Initiative. From 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, the stage was graced by a powerhouse lineup of maternal health experts and changemakers:

• Anjli Hinman, Midwife Director at Atlanta Birth Center
• Nicole Connell, Founder & CEO of Mére
• Jaycina Almond, Founder of Tender Foundation
• Miriam Goodfriend, Director of Public Policy at Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies
• Katherine Sylvestor, Remote Health Monitor at Operation MIST

Together, they tackled urgent topics including Atlanta’s maternal mortality rates, access to equitable care, and the role of community-based support systems. The conversation was raw, hopeful, and deeply personal—highlighting both the systemic challenges mothers face and the grassroots solutions being built to overcome them.

Following the panel, the evening transitioned into networking and community building, where attendees—mothers, allies, and advocates—connected over shared experiences and a collective vision for change.

This event wasn’t just a stop on a national tour—it was a rallying cry for Atlanta. A reminder that when mothers unite, they become a force capable of reshaping policy, culture, and care.
