How it Works

By answering our monthly survey, your voice is added to the data we compile and share on a non-partisan basis with news organizations and legislators. We are committed to providing the public and federal representatives (U.S. Senators and Representatives) with this data to inform on policies that matter to you. We never share any personal information that you provide. The surveys you complete ask for your opinions on specific legislation (bills) that are important to mothers and families and currently being considered in Congress. Count on Mothers provides legislative staff members with comprehensive first-hand data to help them make more informed decisions.

Our Impact

Count on Mothers provides data to inform discussion and decisions in the policy-making process. Our data can factor into almost every step represented here. Take our policy of the month survey today and add your voice to the data legislators use to make these important decisions.

From our community

Our voice is stronger together.

"A mother’s voice speaks not only for herself, but for our future. Count On Mothers understands that. And it's why I was so thrilled to jump in and help grow the voices of mothers where we need them most."

Gayle Gilman

Los Angeles, CA

"Data is power. I love the idea of the power of mothers. Imagine 90%+ of mothers stating that they know more than 1 child who died by suicide in the last year. Imagine the clarity that legislators cannot ignore if nonpartisan data shows X% of mothers state Y."

Bernardine Wu

New York, NY

"I care about Count on Mothers because we need change in this country and mothers are a force that can make that change happen."

Kathy Zukerman

CEO / Creative IT

"Mothers are an incredibly passionate and dedicated group. Individually we make a difference in the lives around us every day. Collectively, if we raise our voices, we can make a difference on a national level. Count on Mothers harnesses this potential."
