Black Maternal Health Week (BMHW) was founded and led by the Black Mamas Matter Alliance in 2018. BMHW is a national week of awareness, activism, and community building intended to:

​

• Deepen the national conversation about Black maternal health in the US.

​

• Amplify community driven policy, research, and care solutions.

​

• Center the voices of Black Mamas, women, families, and stakeholders.

​

• Provide a national platform for Black-led entities and efforts on maternal health, birth and reproductive justice.

​

• Enhance community organizing on Black maternal health.
