Come as you are. Walk. Connect with others and nature. Leave feeling lighter.
SisterWalks is a series of community walks in the San Francisco Bay Area designed to center Black mamas and Black maternal health, hosted by the Center for Birth Justice and SisterWeb Community Doula Network. This series is inspired by the immense healing benefits of walking, allowing unnecessary energy generated by trauma or stress to be released from the body. We recognize that birthwork, advocacy, pregnancy, and motherhood are all labors of love, and we hope to create a space where our body’s movement in nature can create a movement of Black joy.
In a world that often pulls us in a million directions, SisterWalks is a space to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with nature, with joy, and most importantly with each other. Whether you’re a new or expecting mother, a birth worker, or simply someone passionate about Black maternal wellness, we welcome you to join us!
We are hosting our first walk during Black Maternal Health Week 2025 on Thursday, April 17th. SisterWalks: Movement for Black Maternal Joy will take place at the beautiful John McLaren Park near the Bayview and Visitacion Valley in San Francisco. We encourage you to come rocking your favorite shade of purple!
