California Coalition for Black Birth Justice

With seed funding from Health Net, the California Coalition for Black Birth Justice, the first of its kind in California, convenes birth equity and reproductive justice experts to drive coordinated efforts to accelerate birth justice for Black families across the state. We believe that combining our knowledge, capacity, lived experiences, power, and deep love for Black people through the activation of a Black women-led coalition has significant potential to drive the necessary systemic change.

In partnership with Cherished Futures for Black Moms & Babies, the California Coalition for Black Birth Justice serves as an intentional space for Black women to share key knowledge, strategize on various approaches, and co-create solutions for transformational change. After a year of building capacity, engaging community members, and identifying strategies to improve perinatal and infant outcomes, the Coalition will release a Black Birth Justice Agenda outlining recommendations, policy actions, and alignment opportunities to advance Black birth justice in California.
