An integrated approach to maternal wellness for all families. 
Programs are designed to advance health equity within historically underserved populations (women of color, families at higher risk of pregnancy-related complications, and the medically uninsured / underinsured).

Push is a  501(c)(3) maternal health nonprofit organization that serves women, moms-to-be, and families. To accomplish our mission, Push is 1) comprised of passionate public health professionals, peer support advocates, community health workers (CHWs), and patient advocates who are dedicated to improving maternal health experiences and outcomes and 2) works with various community partners, action committees, hospitals, agencies, and other organizations. Push is committed to giving back through hands-on opportunities in a multidisciplinary environment to mission-driven volunteers and committed interns. 

The right candidate will play a vital role in building awareness of Push and its programs and services. As a young nonprofit organization, establishing visibility is paramount to our purpose. In order for Push to be successful in our mission, we must be visible in the communities we serve. This visibility reaches the individuals and families we hope to assist in addition to those we hope will help support our purpose. The Marketing, PR, and Communications volunteer will help Push inform communities of its presence through various strategies, channels, and platforms.

Our volunteer program requires a one-year commitment. However, flexibility will be granted for the right candidate who is seeking a seasonal internship and/or internship for college credit.
