Founded in 1994, the California Black Women's Health Project (CABWHP) focuses on empowering Black women to take personal responsibility for our own health and to advocate for changes in policies that adversely affect Black women's health status.

EMPHASIZING individual responsibility and interpersonal support, we seek to improve the health of Black women and girls using a proactive approach.

BECAUSE Black women influence the family and community standards that impact and improve health, our organization encourages active, daily, health- affirming thoughts and behaviors. We also seek to educate policy makers about conditions that affect our health.

WORKING in partnership with health care providers, health advocates, and community-based organizations, we believe a healthier future for Black women and girls in California is possible.

We urge you to take this opportunity to stay informed and make your voice heard on the issues you care about!
