Across the country, Black mothers and babies face the highest risks in pregnancy and birth. In Florida, low-birth-weight and preterm births remain far too common indicators of deep disparities that have persisted for generations.
At Commonsense Childbirth, the story looks different.
In 2025, out of all patients served, we saw only 17 premature or low-birth-weight babies. All of whom survived.
We also recorded zero maternal deaths and zero neonatal deaths. That’s what safe, community-centered care makes possible: healthier pregnancies, safer births, and stronger families.
Families today are living through a maternal health crisis. The risks are not shared equally. Black, Brown, rural, and low-income mothers face the highest barriers and the greatest disparities. Too many of these outcomes are preventable.
For more than two decades, Commonsense Childbirth has proven there is a better way. Through The JJ Way®, we’ve built a model of care rooted in dignity, compassion, and access. And the results speak for themselves: healthier mamas, stronger babies, thriving families and empowered communities. We provide essential resources and wraparound care, and we train, support and embed trusted community providers and midwives in areas of highest need.
Today, we invite you to become a founding member of the Commonsense Childbirth Safety Net Fund: Circle of Support. Together, we can confront the crisis, sustain the solution, and build the future our families deserve.

We are dreaming boldly with a goal to raise $100,000 by December 31st.
