We're reshaping the landscape of maternal health, one community at a time.

At the LEAP Center, we don't believe zip codes should dictate health outcomes. We empower local communities to become the architects of their own well-being, working hand-in-hand with healthcare providers and expecting mothers to design sustainable programs that address the needs of the most at-risk zip codes in Miami-Dade County.

Improve maternal health outcomes for underserved communities by strengthening community capacity, fostering health equity, and expanding access to quality, culturally responsive care.

Our Mission

A society where every mother, regardless of background or circumstance, experiences a safe, supported, and empowered journey through pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum.

Our Vision

Our Values:

  • Driven by an unwavering commitment to combat maternal mortality and morbidity, we approach our mission with passion and urgency.

  • We believe in the power of communities, empowering them to actively participate in improving maternal health outcomes and fostering a sense of ownership.

  • Committed to creative and evidence-based solutions, we embrace innovation to address the complex challenges surrounding maternal health.

  • We cultivate a culture of continuous learning and improvement, staying informed to adapt our strategies for maximum effectiveness.

  • With a focus on vulnerable populations, we work to eliminate disparities in maternal health outcomes, ensuring our efforts are inclusive and leave no one behind.
