That feeling when a new mom cries in my office bc she finally found help. Nearly 1/10 NJ moms report postpartum, yet many can’t access timely care. NPs step up where the system falls short. S1983/A944 would let us do more. @SpeakerCoughlin@SenPresScutari@JohnFMcKeon#PassS1983
NJ is facing a maternal mental health crisis—and it hits hardest in marginalized communities. Black women are 3–4x more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes. Expanding NP authority helps close these gaps by increasing access to culturally competent care. #PassS1983
