Info Session: Health Equity for Black Mothers, What You Should Know

“The health of Black women is measured in their disproportionally poor health outcomes, but it is a result of a complex milieu of barriers to quality health care, racism, and stress associated with the distinct social experiences of Black womanhood in U.S. society. Black women are characterized by incredible resilience in the face of adversity and continue to experience improvements in health, even with the socioeconomic contexts that allow disparities to persist.”

The above is an excerpt from Health Equity Among Black Women in the United States written by Juanita J. Chinn, Iman K. Martin, and Nicole Redmond.

Join us as we dive into navigating how to best navigate a system where health equity is still lacking.
