BLACK MATERNAL HEALTH WEEK 2024

Written By Brelynn Hunt

During the 2024 Black Maternal Health Week our founder @brelynn.hunt haD the honor of hosting and moderating the congressional briefing and panel: “The Future of Family Building: Creating an Equitable Approach to Treatment Through Culturally Competent Care”

The panel discussion between Dr. Hammond from The Cade Foundation, Dr. Christy from the US Department of Veteran Affairs (Retired Deputy Director of Reproductive Health) and Tanika from The White Dress Project, was so insightful and full of information!

Additionally, many of the members of the Congressional Caucus on Black Women and Girls attended the event, shared their remarks and lended their expertise in advancing legislation for change.

Let’s keep the momentum going and take action towards achieving birth equity 4 all! 💫
