Trainings

Bias, Accountability & Black Maternal Health

Professional training for hospitals, healthcare professionals, institutions, and organizations committed to protecting Black mothers.

Evidence-Based.
Outcome-Focused.

Our training programs are grounded in research, informed by lived experience, and designed to create measurable improvements in maternal care outcomes.

Led by Mercedes Wells and a team of maternal health experts, these sessions combine data, narrative, and practical skills to help healthcare professionals recognize and address the biases that contribute to maternal health disparities.

This is not sensitivity training. It is clinical education designed to save lives.
