Our next set of speakers will be blending advocacy and policy. During our panel discussion, "From the Statehouse to the Exam Room: Advocacy & Policy in Motion," we will hear from these three dynamic change makers.

Myer Krah is a fatherhood advocate and Founder of Here For The Dads; community-engagement background centered on including fathers in maternal health systems.

Tamesia Adun is a Revenue-cycle strategist specializing in credentialing, billing, and reimbursement systems for doulas and community-based providers; also does AMA coding-policy consulting work.

Gabrielle Albert is the Executive Director of 4Kira4Moms, Inc., where she leverages over 20 years of global corporate leadership experience to drive organizational strategy, policy, and nationwide growth in the movement to eradicate preventable maternal mortality. Since taking the helm full-time in 2024, the Florida A&M MBA graduate has expanded the nonprofit's national impact, sixfold its annual revenue, and pioneered key initiatives like the 4Kira4Dads Paternal Centers of Excellence to engage fathers in maternal health advocacy.

Some of the smallest lives can leave the biggest imprint 💚

On NICU Remembrance Day, we honor the babies who are no longer here and the families who carry their love and memory forward.

Whether they were here for moments, days, weeks, or months:

They are loved.
They are remembered.

There is no right way to grieve and no timeline for missing your baby. To every NICU parent navigating loss: You are still your baby’s parent. Your love matters, your grief deserves support, and you are not alone.

PSI offers support groups, Lived Experience Specialists, information, and resources for NICU parents and families experiencing infant loss.

🕯️ Explore PSI’s Loss and Grief resources: https://loom.ly/40G29VA

If you feel comfortable, share your baby’s name or a memory you hold close. We would be honored to remember them with you 💙
