"Every story we tell becomes a step toward justice, a voice for the unheard, and a roadmap to healing generations." — Neshé Conley
Our Mission
At Ebony Women Health Corp, our mission is to eliminate racial disparities in Black maternal health and mental health by providing education, advocacy, and direct support to Black women, birthing people, and families. Through evidence-based programs, cultural competency training, community-driven initiatives, and public health advocacy, we are committed to creating a healthcare system that listens, values, and protects Black mothers and their children. We believe in empowering Black families, amplifying unheard voices, and driving systemic change to ensure that Black women and their babies not only survive—but thrive.
Our Approach
We take a data-driven, community-centered approach to tackling Black maternal health disparities. By amplifying the lived experiences of Black mothers and birthing individuals, we turn their stories into actionable change.
-
Through focus groups, workshops, panel discussions, and support groups, we gather firsthand accounts from Black women and families impacted by traumatic birthing experiences. These stories serve as a foundation for identifying unmet needs and systemic gaps.
-
Using qualitative data from these discussions, we develop cultural competency training programs for healthcare providers, ensuring Black maternal health is understood and prioritized in clinics and hospitals.
-
Our findings shape future workshops, community programs, and surveys, providing real-time data that directly influences maternal care improvements and policy advocacy.
-
We implement a digital platform where Black mothers and birthing individuals can share experiences, access resources, and contribute to real-time insights, ensuring ongoing community engagement and systemic accountability.
-
Every initiative is designed to reduce disparities, enhance maternal healthcare experiences, and empower Black women and families with the knowledge and resources they need to thrive.
