Dear Marti,
Thank you for your message about Group B strep: https://www.hifa.org/dgroups-rss/group-b-strep
I was interested to see the intro video on your home page
https://www.groupbstrepinternational.org/
"Hello, my name is Benna Tomlin (?sp)... I'm a mom whose baby died from complications of Strep B and I felt woefully uninformed about the risks of Group B Strep...]"
Group B Strep International aims to:
'Provide complimentary GBS awareness info and materials
Exhibit and present at conferences worldwide.
Advocate to close the gaps in GBS care for ALL babies'
Please can you say a bit more about your work and especially about the challenge of meeting women's (and health workers') information needs?
Also, HIFA is proud to have Group B Strep International as a HIFA Supporting Organisation:

I look forward to exploring possibilities for collaboration.
Best wishes, Neil
