The March of Dimes urges everyone to sign the 2008 Petition for Preemies, which is online at marchofdimes.com/petititon. The petition calls on federal and state officials, health care professionals and business leaders to take action and help more babies be born healthy and full-term.
The March of Dimes Petition for Preemies calls for action on four key items: 1) federal support for more research; 2) expanded access to healthcare coverage that includes smoking cessation programs; 3) voluntary review of c-sections and inductions to ensure that professional guidelines are followed, and; 4) workplaces that support maternal and infant health.
