We’re listening to the needs of our community and expanding our offerings to serve you better. Check out our exciting new community partnerships below!
Materno Partnership
A pilot application that gives pregnant people free tech, knowledge, and ability to self monitor key components that make their pregnancy high risk. A multilingual Bronx-native clinician serves as a care navigator and provides information, connection, and support in their pregnancy journey.
NourishRx
A project in development with Black Women's Blueprint bringing nutritional education and community sourced agriculture via Sistas Van and Womb Bus, our mobile health units, and food demonstration and community activity in Bronx locations with teaching kitchens and community space.
Irth
Irth (as in Birth, but we dropped the B for bias) helps Black and brown women and birthing people have a more safe and empowered pregnancy and parenting experience by allowing you to see how other parents of color, just like you, experienced care at a doctor or hospital. Then we turn those collective experiences into meaningful data to push for change within health systems.
The Bronx Doula Access Project
Our ongoing work in partnership with The Bronx Health Link, providing three components of “doula access” to our community through doula-led childbirth education, birth doulas, and postpartum doulas, engaging local BIPOC-led doula organizations to serve our community.
Currently at capacity for birth and postpartum doulas, but we encourage you to learn more.
Expanded Childbirth Education
We offer great classes, and we're increasing language access. Community feedback led us to create five relevant, subject-specific classes to add to our comprehensive childbirth education, extending evidence-based info on inductions, epidurals, C-section recovery, strategies for labor, and advocacy. We're conducting research to learn its impact.
