Description

Join us for the last Mamas Meetup and Sister Circle of the Year! There'll be food, fellowship, and fun. Tell a friend! It's time to show up for Black Mothers.  Mission: Our mission is to help Black Women survive and thrive through pregnancy.  About: We are a group of everyday women dedicated to an extraordinary movement to save the lives of Black mothers. The Black Mamas Community Collective’s goal is to reduce and ultimately eliminate the alarming maternal mortality and morbidity rates among Black women. Through programs, increased awareness, training, outreach and research, the Black Mamas Community Collective is leading the charge in Travis County to help Black mothers get the education and access to resources needed to have healthy pregnancies and birthing experiences. The Collective is made up of researchers, social workers, policy makers, public health professionals and community activists and consists primarily of Black women that have survived their own pregnancy and child birthing traumas. The collaborative team is taking a holistic approach to improving access and outcomes, from unpacking the systemic sources of racism in our healthcare systems to delivery home visits for Black mothers located in Central Texas.
