Call for Posters
The Kansas Birth Equity Network is excited to host a poster walk at this year’s Birth Equity Summit!
Our goal is to spotlight efforts to advance birth equity and maternal and child health in the region, with a focus on community-based efforts. As such, posters do not need to follow an academic format. However, academic efforts are welcomed. Submission Deadline
