The mission of Group B Strep International (GBSI) is to promote international awareness and prevention of Group B Strep disease in babies before birth through early infancy. Our goal is to be a central resource for GBS information in a variety of languages for both the general public and medical professionals. The scope of our mission includes actively supporting the GBS awareness and prevention efforts of individuals and organizations on a community or national level. Group B Strep International’s focus includes all stages of a baby’s development in which they are susceptible to GBS infection. This ranges from unborn babies in the first trimester to infants up to six months of age.
