GA HR1728

Georgia House Resolution recognizing Haven House, a maternity supportive housing residence serving pregnant women and young mothers across Georgia

Haven House achieves 100% enrollment of current and former residents in Family Medicaid, WIC, and SNAP, and assists with Childcare and Parent Services Program (CAPS) applications

Serves highly vulnerable populations: 90% of residents previously experienced foster care, approximately 80% aged out of foster care, and 90% have survived human trafficking

One of the only maternity housing residences in Georgia accepting women with complex circumstances, including third-trimester pregnancies, pregnancy complications, learning disabilities, or lack of prior Medicaid enrollment

Georgia's rate of births with late or no prenatal care rose from 7.9% in 2021 to 11.4% in 2024, and 87% of pregnancy-related deaths in the state are considered preventable according to the Georgia Maternal Mortality Review Committee
