Today is International Women's Day, and the Pomelo team is reflecting on the countless contributions of women around the world and the unique challenges they continue to face. At Pomelo Care, we're especially committed to advancing maternal and infant health while reducing disparities for women and babies of color. Too many women continue to lack access to quality healthcare, and these inequities have a profound impact on maternal and infant health. Today, we honor the strength of women who are not only breaking barriers but also driving essential changes within the healthcare system to ensure every mother and infant receives the care and support they deserve. At Pomelo Care, we're proud to be part of a community of brilliant women working tirelessly to bridge these gaps, improve outcomes, and ensure equitable access to care for women and families everywhere.
