How You Can Get Involved - BlogHer '12

On Saturday, August 4th, Christy joined Soledad O'Brien and Malaak Compton-Rock at the BlogHer '12 conference in New York City for the "Women Influencers as Change Agents" panel. Christy discussed the importance of advocacy work and what you can do to get involved and help support your community with Every Mother Counts. Here's what Christy asked the BlogHer community to do:

•Use your voice and share the stats you learned today with your community. Write a blog, share your own story.

•Help us raise resources to support women around the world to get the care they need. You can buy a product that generates resources for EMC or run so others don't have to. Join team EMC and run or walk a 5k, half marathon or marathon in solidarity with moms who can't access maternity care when they need it most.

•Become part of our community and support our Sisters. Visit www.everymothercounts.org's #SummerofSisterhood and choose an action that will support a mom in need. Sign up on our email list, our Facebook page or twitter to stay in touch.

•Let's put an end to the Mommy Wars because moms need moms. 

Together, we can make pregnancy and childbirth safe for all moms.
