Resource
This list is a work-in-progress to serve as a central place for pregnant and postpartum families in the Greater Philadelphia Area to find links to resources for in-person and virtual services, classes and supports during this time of social distancing. This is a stressful time for everyone but particularly for folks who are pregnant, due to give birth soon or have newborns. Recognizing inequities in access and resources, technology and innovations can help keep people connected and offer alternative ways for many people to still get care and support.
