While we see improved birth outcomes for Black birthing folks within the birth center setting, there is still much work to be done to make giving birth safe for Black communities. In this interactive webinar, we will discuss:
The racial disparities that still exist for Black folks in countries where midwifery is the standard practice
Addressing the reality of implicit bias in a system that has ingrained racism into us (no matter how much work we do to de-program it)
Steps to take to start fostering a safer birthing environment for Black folks in your birth center
Storytelling - We invite all attendees to bring their own stories and experiences! This is a space for us to share openly and learn together. We all have something to add to the narrative, whether we recognize it or not. We welcome your presence and your stories.
Webinar Wednesday is a FREE benefit of AABC Membership.
