“I have literally wished for the ability to prescribe an antidote to poverty,” said Mona Hanna-Attisha MSU College of Human Medicine & MSU Public Health. "It’s about not being OK with poisoned water & it’s about not being OK with babies growing up in poverty," via The Guardian. theguardian.com/us-news/2024/a…

“We continue to use the bodies of kids as detectors of environmental contamination,"Dr. Mona, a Flint pediatrician and activist tells The Lancet. "We need to do a better job detecting lead...and removing it before kids are exposed.” #FlintWaterCrisis thelancet.com/journals/lance…

From Gaza's last maternity and neonatal hospital, in Rafah: "At the moment there are 45 babies between the neonatal intensive care unit and the special care intensive care unit. Without a doubt, if the Israeli army occupies this space, every single one of those babies will die."

“In Flint, we are often like, ‘These kids were born in the wrong place at the wrong time.’ Right now, they feel like they’re born at the right place at the right time…. It’s almost like a collective hug from society.” #RxKids mlive.com/news/flint/202…

Rx Kids is giving moms & babies in Flint the financial support they need during pregnancy & the first year of life. This program is helping to lift families out of poverty & invest in our kids’ health & futures. Thank you Dr. Mona for your leadership on this initiative!

Dr. Mona + @profshaefer shared their experience developing RxKids, the first citywide cash program to support infants in the U.S., with funding through a #TANF block grant. Learn more about RxKids: flintrxkids.com

Harris has proposed giving $6,000 (via refundable tax credit) to families in the 1st year of a baby's life. Flint, Michigan has been doing exactly that for the past year. The results are incredible: -Fewer babies born with low birthweight -No families evicted in baby 1st year

For years, Flint has been a cautionary tale, the poster child of failed govt policy. Now Flint aims to reinvent itself. It launched an innovative, pro-family experiment that's become a key plank of Harris’s agenda: giving every newborn baby $6,000 cash wapo.st/3A3Hy4C

“For a long time we have not wanted to be remembered as the city that poisons its kids,” says Dr. Mona Hanna, godmother of Flint's "baby bonus" program. “We want to be remembered for what we do next.” wapo.st/3A3Hy4C
