Our Commitment to Transparency

Khairi and Little Angels’ Memorial (KLA Memorial) is committed to accuracy, integrity, and transparency in how maternal and infant health data is presented. Statistics shared on this website are used to educate, advocate, and drive meaningful, lifesaving action for families and communities we serve.

How Our Data Is Used

Data displayed on this website supports community education, program development, advocacy efforts, and funding priorities. All statistics are presented with clear definitions, source references, and update timelines.

Important Note About Real-Time Data

Infant mortality and maternal health data is not available in real time in the United States. These statistics require verified birth and death records and are typically published annually or quarterly after review and confirmation by public health authorities.

Primary Data Sources

Khairi and Little Angels’ Memorial relies on the following trusted sources:

• Alabama Department of Public Health (ADPH)
• Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
• CDC WONDER Database
• National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS)
• U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)

Data Update Schedule

Statistics are reviewed and updated at least once per year or as new verified data is released. Each chart or statistic includes a ‘Last Updated’ reference to ensure transparency.

Understanding the Data

Percentages represent proportions of total infant deaths unless otherwise stated. Rates are expressed per 1,000 live births when applicable. All terminology follows CDC and ADPH definitions.

Limitations

Public health data may not fully capture lived experiences, social determinants of health, or delays in reporting from underserved communities. For this reason, data is paired with direct services and community-based support.
