WHO WE ARE

About the California Black Women's Health Project

CALIFORNIA BLACK WOMEN’S HEALTH PROJECT, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, was established in 1994 as an affiliate of the Black Women’s Health Imperative (formerly National Black Women’s Health Project) based in Washington D.C.  We seek to empower women to become active participants in improving their health status.

Our Mission 

​We are committed to advocating for policies and practices that promote and improve physical, spiritual, mental and emotional well-being of Black women and girls in California. 

Our Vision

​We believe a healthier future is possible when women are empowered to make choices in an environment where equal access and health justice are community priorities.

What We Do

Train

We train Black women to become health advocates through skill-based instruction in community organizing, planning, and engagement.

Inform

From a Black perspective, we educate women about disease prevention, domestic/intimate partner violence, nutrition/fitness, mental health, reproductive health, menopause, and other health issues.
Picture

Advocate

We advocate for policies that address the social determinants of health and aim to eliminate the disparity in Black women’s health status.

Assist

We work collaboratively with community-based organizations to assist with workshops, programs, and data collection/sharing about Black women’s health issues.
DONATE
The California Black Women's Health Project is the only statewide, non-profit organization that is solely committed to ​improving the health of California's 1.2 million Black women and girls through advocacy, education, outreach and policy.
