Maternal Health Summit: Healthy Beginnings, Stonger Tomorrows- A Community Approach to Maternal & Infant Health

Maternal Health Summit 2025 — A Powerful Gathering for Change

On Friday, October 10, 2025, we proudly hosted our inaugural Maternal Health Summit at the Jackie Robinson Training Complex. The event brought together healthcare professionals, advocates, and community members from across the county and beyond for a day of meaningful connection and transformative knowledge-sharing.

We were honored to welcome Dr. Washington Hill as our keynote speaker, alongside Jennifer Mikenas, Florida Ambassador of Count the Kicks. The Summit featured nine passionate breakout speakers covering vital topics including Preconception Health, Perinatal Bereavement, and Maternal Mental Health. The day concluded with powerful closing remarks from our CEO, Megan McFall, RN.

We’re deeply grateful for the support of our sponsors- CLEVELAND CLINIC INDIAN RIVER HOSPITAL and SUPERNUS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. / BIOGEN.

And lastly, this collaborative project couldn’t have succeeded without the insight, wisdom, and encouragement shared by all of our speakers—it left a lasting impact on everyone in attendance.
