The Arizona Perinatal Trust (APT) is excited to share the findings from their Crucial Voices of Arizona project, which seeks to promote respectful maternity care across Arizona by amplifying the CDC's Hear Her campaign. In 2024-2025, The CDC Foundation awarded the Arizona Perinatal Trust (APT) to support this important work. APT conducted multiple focus groups of women, and their support people, who shared their experiences during prenatal, birth, and postpartum care. The women speaking to their communities in the videos were participants from listening sessions held across the state with women from diverse backgrounds. New social media short videos will be released each week over the next four weeks.
The Bureau of EMS & Trauma System, in collaboration with the AZ TIM Coalition, and the four EMS Regional Councils is offering Free 4-hour Virtual Traffic Incident Management (TIM) Courses throughout the year. TIM trains first responders to reduce the risks of being struck and killed at highway incident scenes.
Participants receive 4 CE hours.
