Black History Month is an annual celebration of achievements by African Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history. Also known as African American History Month, the event grew out of “Negro History Week,” the brainchild of noted historian Carter G. Woodson and other prominent African Americans. Since 1976, every U.S. president has officially designated the month of February as Black History Month. Other countries around the world, including Canada and the United Kingdom, also devote a month to celebrating Black history.

Today, Black History Month is a time to honor the contributions and legacy of African Americans across U.S. history and society—from activists and civil rights pioneers such as Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, Marcus Garvey, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X and Rosa Parks to leaders in industry, politics, science, culture and more.

Since 1976, every American president has designated February as Black History Month and endorsed a specific theme. The Black History Month 2026 theme, “A Century of Black History Commemorations," focuses on a century of national commemorations of Black history.

Comfort Measures for Labor
This hands-on, in-person workshop, taught by Certified Birth & Postpartum Doula Kristin Revere, focuses on comfort measures for labor and birth. This class covers medical and non-medical pain relief options, communication, positions for labor and birthing, and breathing techniques. It will ease your mind as you prepare for birth.

This workshop is perfect for both first-time and seasoned parents. This class does not replace a comprehensive childbirth class. It will not cover stages of labor or interventions. This class includes worksheets.

This class has virtual ($90) or in-person private ($125) options.

Breastfeeding: Getting a Strong Start
This comprehensive virtual course is taught by Board Certified Lactation Consultant Kelly Wysocki-Emery.

Get access to the Breastfeeding: Getting A Strong Start course to watch on your own first…THEN get access to a virtual Q&A session to ask any lingering questions. This education is a hybrid model (some learning on your own via video course and then meeting with a lactation consultant to bring it all into focus).

Newborn Survival
Learn how to survive your first several weeks home with baby! In this laid-back class, you will go over real-life scenarios so that you’re confident and prepared when your baby arrives. Your instructor, Alyssa Veneklase, is a Certified Postpartum Doula, Newborn Care Specialist, and Certified Infant & Child Sleep Consultant. She will answer common questions about feeding, fussiness, soothing techniques, swaddling methods, bathing, safety, sleeping, and more.

Each virtual class is $90. Remember, you can register for one, two, or all three! If you decide later to attend another class, you can sign up the day of (as long as the class is not full).
