Celebrate the 10th annual Black Maternal Health Week! 🤰🏿🤰🏾🫃🏿🫃🏾🫄🏿🫄🏾
From https://blkmaternalhealthweek.com/:
"Held annually on April 11-17th, BMHW is a week-long campaign founded and led by the Black Mamas Matter Alliance to build awareness, activism, and community-building to amplify the voices, perspectives and lived experiences of Black Mamas and birthing people.
The week is intentionally held during National Minority Health Month and begins on April 11th annually to join dozens of global organizations in marking this day as International Day for Maternal Health and Rights – an opportunity to advocate for the elimination of maternal mortality, globally.
The activities and conversations hosted throughout the week intentionally center the values and practices of the birth and reproductive justice movements."
