January is Birth Defects Awareness Month.

Black mothers and families in Delaware deserve care that takes us seriously. Our pain is real. Our voices matter. Our lives are not statistics.

Birth defects are not about shame. They are about access. Access to prenatal care that is respectful. Access to clear information. Access to providers who listen and respond.

This month is about standing with families navigating complex journeys. It is about demanding systems that protect Black life from pregnancy through parenting. Every journey matters, especially ours.

Support should never be conditional. It is a right.

Say her name: Dr. Janell Green-Smith

A Black midwife. A maternal health advocate. A life taken by systemic racism in healthcare. This is not an accident. This is what happens when Black mothers are treated as disposable, even when they are experts saving lives.

Birth should not traumatize Black mothers. Black mothers should not have to fight for their lives while fighting for others. We demand safety, justice, and accountability - for Dr. Janell, for every Black mother, and for every Black family.
