Funding is essential for a Black maternal and infant health clinic to conduct critical research on environmental racism and its effects on postpartum health. Many Black mothers and infants face disproportionate health challenges influenced by systemic inequities, including access to clean air, safe housing, and nutritious food. By investigating these environmental factors, our clinic can identify specific barriers that contribute to adverse health outcomes, empowering us to advocate for policy changes that promote equity and safety for our communities.

Moreover, this funding will support community outreach and education initiatives that raise awareness about the unique health challenges faced by Black postpartum mothers. By engaging directly with our community, we can ensure that our research addresses the real needs of those we serve. This holistic approach not only enhances the health of mothers and infants but also fosters a supportive environment that champions the well-being of families. Your support can make a tangible difference in our mission to combat environmental racism and improve health outcomes for Black mothers and their children.
