Orange County

Orange County is one of the 10 North Carolina counties participating in Thriving Hearts. From now through 2030, Thriving Hearts will be working with the Orenage County Health Department to improve maternal health outcomes in the county. Our collaboration builds on current maternity practices and ongoing efforts to improve the quality of care for community members during the pregnancy and postpartum period. Orange County is considered a small size county based on their number of births each year. Orange County will have 1 Perinatal Community Health Worker (PCHW) connecting patients and birthing persons to community resources.

LHD Champion, Orange County

I am LaTosha Scott, Social Worker with the Orange County Health Department. My profession has granted me the opportunity to connect with various populations (children , families and adults with various social and healthcare needs). Under the mission and values of the North Carolina state faciliated program, Care Management for High Risk Pregnancies (CMHRP), I provide Care Management services to women with identified health and social needs in both Orange and Chatham County. I also currently service the community by providing crisis support services to adults with behavioral health and substance use disorders. In March 2024, in collaboration with Moses Cone Hospitals and WFMY News 2 , I was granted the opportunity to have a featured segment for Women’s Health Month. At this time, I personally and publicly began to advocate and share the importance of Women’s Health with my personal mission, “Advocate for yourself and the ones that give life and light to your life.”
