WEST CHESTER, PA — Maternity Care Coalition (MCC) will host a free community baby shower for Chester County-based parents on Saturday, June 14, from 11:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. The event will take place at the Charles A. Melton Arts & Education Center, located at 501 E. Miner Street in West Chester, PA.
The baby shower invites new and expectant parents, as well as families with babies under six months old, to enjoy an afternoon filled with games, food, raffles, and free baby care items. The event will also serve as an opportunity for parents to access resources and information that can aid them on their parenting and pregnancy journeys.
MCC’s mission is deeply aligned with improving maternal and child health in Chester County. Through services like home visiting programs, community and parenting education, doula and lactation support, and behavioral health resources, the organization helps expecting families achieve better birth outcomes and foster healthy early development.
“At Maternity Care Coalition, we work to increase support throughout pregnancy, labor and birth, and postpartum to address maternal and infant mortality,” said Samia Bristow, MCC’s Vice President of Programs. “Our community baby shower aims to uplift, celebrate, and empower pregnant people, mothers, and birthing families. This demonstrates our daily commitment to birthing people and families in Chester County and each county we serve.”
MCC envisions a future where families impacted by racial and social inequities across Pennsylvania and Delaware can experience dignified birthing experiences and raise healthy, thriving children. Through events like the community baby shower, the organization strives to provide essential resources and foster connections that strengthen families and communities.
