Fresno County Black Infant Health Program

Fresno County Black Infant Health Program Fresno County Black Infant Health (BIH) Program; 1 of 17 BIH programs in California.

Since 1991, the Fresno County Department of Public Health’s Black Infant Health (BIH) Program, one of 17 BIH programs in California, has worked to decrease the infant mortality rate in our African-American community. Infant mortality refers to the death of infants before their first birthday. It is expressed as a rate by the number of infant deaths per 1,000 live births in the same year. African Americans have more than three times the infant mortality rate as non-Hispanic whites in Fresno County. Our goal at BIH is to help increase your chances of having a healthy pregnancy and your baby’s chances for a healthy start in life.
