BLKHLTH Conversations: A Love Letter to Black Mothers

In honor of Mothers Day, join BLKHLTH for an evening of collective care, storytelling, and support centered around Black motherhood. In addition to free maternal health resources and dinner, the event will feature a special live performance of the play Black Mother Joy from Out of Hand Theater and an enriching conversation on strategies for positive pregnancy, birth, and motherhood experiences. Whether you’re a new or expecting parent, care provider, or advocate - we’d love for you to celebrate Black mothers with us!
