H Code, TRUth, & MarketVision Partner to Raise Awareness of Health Issues Impacting Multicultural Communities

The alliance will initially support CDC’s national Hear Her campaign, bringing attention to pregnancy-related complications and deaths in the U.S.

H Code, TRUth, and MarketVision today announce their partnership to reach multicultural audiences and increase awareness of issues directly impacting these communities through integrated marketing campaigns. The partnership will initially support the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)’s Hear Her campaign, which aims to drive awareness of serious pregnancy-related complications and their warning signs in an effort to reduce pregnancy-related deaths. Given the significant racial disparities in pregnancy-related complications and deaths in the United States, the three partners will support the campaign’s initiative for outreach to Black and Latinx women across digital channels.

Launched in August by the CDC, Hear Her is a national campaign that brings attention to pregnancy-related deaths and raises awareness of urgent maternal warning signs that can lead to complications. In addition, the campaign also encourages women’s partners, friends, family, and healthcare providers to listen to their concerns and engage in important conversations with them.

“It has become even more apparent in recent months that women in minority communities are in dire need of support. We are honored to work with TRUth and MarketVision and collectively help the CDC in accomplishing their goal of raising awareness on this critical issue,” says Gerry Ramirez, VP of Client Services of H Code.

Together H Code, TRUth, and MarketVision will create digital content to reach impacted audiences in an effort to speak to them directly and increase awareness about maternal mortality and morbidity.

“This campaign addresses an urgent need within multicultural communities. TRUth looks forward to taking action alongside our partners and creating an integrated marketing strategy that will effectively serve pregnant and postpartum women,” says Yousef Kattan, President and CEO at TRUth.

“We are living in a time when communication has never been more important and sharing these potentially life-saving messages digitally will not only build on the CDC’s work on maternal mortality, but also ensure vital information and resources are available to the multicultural communities and the women that need it most,” adds Alice Ovadia, VP of Brand Media at TRUth.

The Hear Her campaign is one of many strategies that CDC, other federal partners, and numerous organizations around the country are working on to prevent maternal mortality.
