No parent should have to choose between paying their bills and spending the necessary time healing and bonding with their new baby. To begin solving the maternal health crisis, grow our region, and make Allegheny County a place where families can build solid futures, we need paid parental leave for all workers NOW.

Black families deserve time to welcome a new child, heal, bond, and care for one another—without losing a paycheck, going into debt, or risking their jobs.

Join us on Tuesday, September 1, from 6:00–8:00 PM for Black Families, Black Power, a family-friendly community gathering about paid parental leave, addressing the maternal and infant mortality crisis, and building organized Black power across Allegheny County.

We’re bringing together Black mothers, fathers, parents of every gender, caregivers, birth workers, health professionals, and community members to talk honestly about what families experience when paid leave isn’t available—and what we can win when we organize together.

📆 Tuesday, September 1
🕛️ 6 - 8 pm

Spotlighting a special feature, a photo story with that followed one of the Pittsburgh chapter's newest members, Jean Givner, and her family's navigation of the affordability crisis.

For this project, the Givner family's daily lives were chronicled: at home, work, and on the go, with interviews featuring Ms. Jean, her children, and grandchildren- giving readers an in-depth perspective as three generations of Givners live under one roof to try to make ends meet in these challenging economic times.

Special thanks to Ms. Jean, who has an incredibly moving story and has hit the ground running since coming into the PA United fold. This project is a reminder that our work is real, visible, and important, and our people are willing to boldly step out to amplify our community's issues.

Thanks to everyone who spoke in support of paid parental leave at Thursday’s Allegheny County Council meeting!

Working people are struggling with the rising cost of living and shouldn’t be worried about losing their paychecks or jobs in order to take care of their babies.

Allegheny County needs paid parental leave now, as clinical studies prove that paid leave reduces infant and maternal deaths and improves physical and mental health for new parents and children. That’s why a broad coalition of advocates, Magee union nurses, community members and elected leaders are calling for paid parental leave for all Allegheny County residents to address the infant and maternal health crisis and ensure kids and families can thrive.

On Tuesday, we held a Flint + Pittsburgh Day of Action THAT provided an important opportunity to commemorate the ten-year anniversary of Pittsburgh's water crisis, honor the ongoing struggle for water justice in Flint and communities across the country, and reaffirm our collective commitment to keeping water public, affordable, safe, and accountable to the people.

Thank you to all our partners at the Our Water Table! None of this would have been possible without your dedication, collaboration, and leadership.
