This resolution is a mayoral nomination to reappoint Dr. JaNeen Cross to the Maternal Mortality Review Committee (MMRC) in Washington, DC, for a term ending January 10, 2028. Dr. Cross is an Associate Professor at Howard University's School of Social Work with extensive expertise in maternal and child health, and she will be serving specifically as the social worker specializing in women's or maternal health. A Maryland resident with multiple advanced degrees, including a Doctor of Clinical Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Cross has significant professional experience including serving as the former President of the National Association of Perinatal Social Workers and being a Co-Principal Investigator on a mental health awareness training grant. Her reappointment is supported by a legal sufficiency review from the Office of the General Counsel to the Mayor, which found the nomination legally unobjectionable, and the resolution seeks confirmation from the DC Council for her continued service on the Maternal Mortality Review Committee.
