Our goal is to improve pregnancy, health and developmental outcomes for residents of Osceola County. We work to reduce infant mortality & morbidity, low birth weight & preterm births and increase access to care to give all children the best potential for a healthy and productive life.

Programs and services provided and funded by the Coalition include Connect, Healthy Start, TEAM Dad, Fetal Infant Mortality Review, Childbirth Education classes, Community CAFE (breastfeeding and postpartum support group), and bereavement support. All are provided free of charge to any pregnant woman, expecting father, or parent with a child 3 years or younger residing in Osceola County.
