22 sisters from across Los Angeles County came together for 10 weeks to gain a deeper understanding of the forces that contribute to mental health stigma, anxiety and isolation in Black women and learn coping and support strategies to advance community priorities for mental health advocacy and organizing. Our Los Angeles Cohort has launched it's mental-health focused sister circle and welcomes collaboration with community. 

Hey Sis, are you pregnant?

Get support & resources from like-minded Sisters as you go through this incredible journey!

California Black Women’s Health Project, in partnership with LA Care and LA County, would like to invite you to join us for a special series of virtual community gatherings where you will learn about pregnancy and childbirth. Topics to be discussed are — birth prep, patient advocacy, maternal mental health and nutrition. All while being connected with an intimate community of Sisters you can share your stories and questions with. This community series will take place over 4 sessions, over 4 Sunday’s starting in June. Each session will be 2 hours long.

The dates are: 8/1, 8/8, 8/15, and 8/22 from 3-5PM PST.

What we ask of you:

Bring a sister friend! Bring a grandmother, mother, sister, aunt, cousin, or friend to join you at the sessions. (This makes our community stronger as we are able to share knowledge with more people who can share it with others.)

Your commitment to ideally a majority, if not all, of the 4 sessions.

Share with the group! This will be a collaborative group session where everyone will have a chance to talk and share their thoughts.

California Black Women’s Health Project, LA Care, and LA County are committed to supporting Black women and birthing mothers. We are proud to support our community and improve Black maternal and infant outcomes in California. We would be honored to support you and your family during this special time!
