About
Mississippi Access to Maternal Assistance is a centralized state portal and mobile app dedicated to connecting pregnant women, new mothers, and families to vital healthcare and community resources across Mississippi. To support health and wellness, the app links users to free pregnancy testing, ultrasounds, Medicaid enrollment, mental health counseling, and addiction recovery resources. Families can find essential goods through direct connections to local diaper banks and centers offering free car seats, cribs, formula, and infant clothing. The portal also assists with food and financial security by streamlining access to SNAP/WIC enrollment, food pantries, rent and utility aid, and childcare subsidies. Additionally, MAMA connects mothers to safety and legal support, domestic violence shelters, job openings, workforce development training, and financial literacy classes.
