The  Perinatal Collaborative of Benton & Franklin Counties is focused on improving the quality of care for mothers and babies and cross-system partnerships to improve outcomes in the perinatal period - Prenatal to child's first birthday. 

We provide opportunities for networking, collaboration between agencies, learning and disseminating best practices throughout the bi-county area. 

Our work is intended to amplify impact and advance systems change; it is not intended to replace the efforts of the many other community partners or direct-service providers working towards similar goals. Instead, we strive to bring together groups to raise awareness and promote practices that will improve services and outcomes of our perinatal population. 

This Collaborative meets on the second Thursday of the month at 11:00 am to 12:00pm via Teams.
