The Michiana Family Journey (MFJ) proposal strategically targets a population in two Indiana counties within Beacon Health Systems service area: Elkhart and St. Joseph. In line with the Healthy Start grant's objectives to eliminate disparities, MFJ focuses on enhancing birth outcomes and promoting health equity. The program will use a regional approach to support all families with an emphasis on addressing the disparities of black infant deaths. Operating within eight specific urban ZIP codes, MFJ collaborates with community partners to improve maternal and infant health outcomes. The program integrates clinical and community-based services, enhances community awareness, employs data-driven strategies, and improves maternal/infant home visits and care coordination. The implementation of a customized Cycle to Respectful Care (CRC) Model aims to diminish bias and foster trust, addressing disparities in infant mortality rates for Black infants. MFJ seeks to convene a Community Consortium, fostering cross-sector partnerships and communities of practice to ensure access to coordinated, comprehensive maternal, child, and family medical care, health, parenting education, and various community resources, with a focus on addressing social determinants of health (SDOH). MFJ providers will undergo comprehensive training programs aligned seamlessly with the CRC Model, aiming to eliminate disparities in maternal and infant health. Through these efforts, MFJ serves as a pathway for positive change, empowering participants for healthier pregnancy outcomes and future pregnancies.
