Bilingual maternal health care in Philadelphia

Philadelphia is home to one of the oldest maternity programs in the country at Pennsylvania Hospital, and to a large Spanish-speaking community concentrated in North Philadelphia neighborhoods like Fairhill and Hunting Park. Materna meets that community with bilingual, Spanish-first prenatal and postpartum care that works around shift schedules and SEPTA routes.
