Birth Justice Consortium
Rooted In Community, Committed To Change.
Our collaborative network focuses on leveraging expertise and community assets to inform community conversations, identify areas of opportunity, and programs and activities that work to eliminate infant and maternal health inequities in our Black and African American communities.

Birth Consortium specifically focuses to:
-
Address racist and unjust systems
-
Support the full village of support for birthing individuals and families, including fathers and partners
-
Improve fourth trimester support
-
Improve mental health and well-being
