  • Increase attention to the state of Black maternal health in the US, the root causes of poor maternal health outcomes, and community-driven policy, program, and care solutions;
  • Amplify the voices of Black mamas, women, families, and stakeholders on this important issue;
  • Serve as a national platform for Black women-led entities and efforts on maternal health, birth justice, and reproductive justice, including African immigrant and Afro Latinx groups; and
  • Enhance community organizing on Black maternal health via community conversations, events, and outreach.
