About Us

Our Purpose

The Magnolia Project, through our partnership with the Northeast Florida Healthy Start Coalition, Voices Institute, NICHQ, and UnitedHealthcare, is dedicated to transforming maternal and child health in our community.

We empower mothers with lived experience to become leaders, advocates, and change makers, creating a ripple effect of positive health outcomes that extends throughout families and communities.
