Mommy & Me Wellness Resources
There is a strong link between a mother’s well-being and her baby’s development. As part of The Basics Mommy & Me Initiative, Cobb Collaborative is increasing support to pregnant women and moms with infants through education, community engagement, and strategic partnerships.
We seek to improve maternal and infant health outcomes in Cobb County by increasing access to prenatal, postnatal, and early childhood development resources.
