Almost 40% of Pacific Islander Women in California Do Not Receive Adequate Prenatal Care

Percentage of Women Receiving Adequate Prenatal Care, 2020-2022

Note: "Adequate" is defined by the California Department of Public Health using the Adequacy of Prenatal Care Utilization Index. This is a measure of how soon and how often the birthing parent received care, based upon recommendations from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. Birth records are not specific to women, but instead reflect birthing people.
