We began as a group of women concerned about the health and well-being of our babies.As grandmothers, mothers, aunties, daughters, and sisterfriends, we found we had no choice but to take on the plethora of health iss

ues Black women encounter. As a non-profit, Black Women for Wellness is able to seek funding and accept donations to support our programs. BWW is a nonprofit corporation under Section 501 (c) (3) Revenue Code.

Last month at our Sisters@Eight community breakfast forum, we came together for a powerful conversation on the importance of Black participation in clinical trial research. 🌱

Special thanks to Dr. Kimlin Ashing, a leading psycho-oncologist and researcher, for breaking down the benefits, challenges, and impact of representation in these studies. Community voices matter, and our presence in research ensures better care, equity, and outcomes for us all.

Black Women for Wellness’ sister organization, Black Women for Wellness Action Project was in the house yesterday as Gov. Gavin Newsom held a rally and news conference in Los Angeles to address the fight over congressional redistricting.

Gov. Newsom and Democratic allies gathered at the Democracy Center at the Japanese American National Museum to announce a campaign for a ballot measure that would redraw the state’s congressional maps to favor Democrats before the 2026 midterms.

The message was clear: If Texas continues to bow to Trump and gerrymander Democrats (and vulnerable communities) out of the seats they’ve rightfully won, we will respond in California. This is a coordinated attack on Black political power and the future of our democracy and BWWAP showed up in support ✊🏾

Black Women for Wellness, The Descendants Project, and Break Free from Plastic took the global stage today in Geneva during the UN’s Global Plastics Treaty negotiations.

At our press conference, we spoke truth to power about the environmental racism and reproductive justice violations our communities face—calling for a health-protective treaty that includes people of African descent.

We’re not here as spectators. We’re here with the expertise, solutions, and stories to shape a just future.
