Women's Wellness for Life

Healthy women during, between and after pregnancies is our vision for all women whether they are planning to become pregnant, not thinking about becoming pregnant, or on the fence about pregnancy and becoming a parent. Taking steps to get healthy and stay healthy is a great choice for every woman, and a bonus if/when a pregnancy occurs, because it helps to ensure a healthy outcome for the pregnancy and baby! Our program is funded by NYS DOH PICHC! 

According to the CDC full term pregnancy lasts from 39 to 41 week. Babies born before that (37 to 39 weeks) are “pre-term.” Babies born sooner than 37 weeks are considered very pre-term, and may need to stay in the hospital after birth. Learn the risk factors for preterm birth and prevention.

Prenatal Childbirth Education

Pregnant women must prioritize caring for themselves and their unborn child. Our classes teach you what you need to know and do to maintain optimal health and wellness for each trimester of your pregnancy and after your baby is born.


Having a baby is challenging at any age, regardless of the circumstances, but especially for single moms and teens, who may not have a strong support system or access to medical care and other support services.​

We have Bilingual Perinatal Community Health Workers!

MiSN CHWs are trusted peers in your community who have been trained on women and infant health. They serve women from ages 15 to 44 and can connect you with services, resources, education, informal counseling, social support and advocacy when you need a helping hand.
