Honoring Black Maternal Health Week💜

Every mother deserves to be heard, respected, and supported throughout her pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum journey. Yet too many Black mothers continue to face disparities in maternal health outcomes.

This week, LWC stands in solidarity to uplift Black mothers, amplify their voices, and advocate for equitable, compassionate maternal care for all. 🤎

Healthy mothers. Healthy families. Healthy communities.

Sometimes people want to show up for someone who is grieving, but they freeze because they are afraid of saying the wrong thing. The truth is, support does not have to be perfect to be meaningful.

A simple check-in with no pressure can go a long way. Offering one specific, manageable form of help can feel more supportive than saying, “Let me know if you need anything.”

Grief can make it hard to respond, decide, or ask for help. Gentle, low-pressure messages remind someone they are not alone, while still giving them space.

Save this for later, and share it with someone who wants to support a grieving friend but does not know what to say.
