The full list of events that we are collaborating with folks throughout Greater Baltimore and beyond to amplify and celebrate Black Maternal Health Week and this year’s theme “Our Bodies Belong to Us: Restoring Black Joy and Autonomy”
We are a Kindred Partner with the Black Mamas Matter Alliance and always look forward to this intentional month to uplift and amplify the work. We invite you to join us 💜
Black Maternal Health Week was Founded by the Black Mamas Matter Alliance (@blackmamasmatter), Black Maternal Health Week (BMHW) intentionally coincides with National Minority Health Month and the International Day for Maternal Health and Rights. Each year, from April 11th to April 17th, BMMA leads the charge during Black Maternal Health Week to:
🌺Deepen the national conversation about Black Maternal Health in the US
🌺Amplify community-driven policy, research, and care solutions
🌺Center the voices of Black Mamas, Birthing persons, families and stakeholders;
🌺Provide a national platform for Black-led entities and efforts on maternal health, Birth and Reproductive Justice; and
🌺Enhance community organizing on Black Maternal Health
