Overview

Mission

The mission of the Association of Maternal & Child Health Programs is to protect and promote the optimal health of women, children, and families.

What it reported doing in 2024

Legislative activities: The Association of Maternal & Child Health Programs provides regular information to its membership and stakeholders on public policy issues affecting the field of maternal and child health. These issues include federal budget allocations including sequestration, changes in programs providing health insurance coverage to MCH populations, and the status of a range of programs administered at the state level in partnership with the department of health and human services. Activities include publication of newsletters, development of policy analysis, learning opportunities for states to share their perspectives with each other, and allowable activities to educate policymakers and assure they have information to support decisions affecting MCH populations and programs.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 66% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 95% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
