We were thrilled to see Nurse Barb Ibrahim and our partners at Family Connects Oregon highlighted on NPR today! "'Just having Barb here has helped me feel supported emotionally and improved my mental health — right in the thick of these first few, hard months of parenting,' Amber tells NPR." Oregon has been a pioneer in advancing statewide support for Family Connects, and this national recognition is well-earned.

Family Connects International’s Chief Nursing Officer Jenny Jensen was featured in the MAHEC Just Us: Before, Birth, & Beyond Podcast! In Season 3, Episode 9 she discusses the critical importance of providing language concordant care for postpartum families. “I just feel really grateful and really privileged to be able to work with families during this time in their life because because I know that giving birth, you know, for most families is very joyful but it’s also a time when there’s just a lot going on… There’s a lot of vulnerability and it just always seems to me a sacred space whether you are in the hospital, [or] in the home, just being a part of somebody’s life in that moment is really special and I’m very grateful for the families that have let me bare witness in that time and offer them support and it keeps me going in this career”
