There’s something truly magical about coming together with individuals who share your passion, values, and dreams. These gatherings aren’t just ordinary meetings; they are vibrant celebrations of life, empowerment, and advocacy. If you haven’t had the chance to experience them yet, let me give you a glimpse of what you’re missing.
A Purposeful Mission
At the heart of the Black Breastfeeding Coalition is a mission that resonates deeply with our community. It’s about promoting breastfeeding within the Black community, not just as a health choice but as an act of resilience, love, and culturally congruent care. The quarterly meetings serve as a hub where advocates, parents, healthcare professionals, and community members unite to amplify this mission.
The Power of Collaboration
One of the most beautiful aspects of these meetings is the sense of collaboration that permeates the virtual space. We gather on Zoom, while many of us are nursing babies and taking care of our household while we come together as a formidable force. Our collective wisdom, shared experiences, and unwavering commitment to improving perinatal health among Black mothers, families, and babies drive meaningful change.
Sharing Insights and Experiences
During each meeting, we engage in thought-provoking discussions and presentations that shed light on crucial aspects of Black infant feeding. We dive deep into topics like the historical context and current challenges of Black breastfeeding, and the incredible benefits first food equity brings to our community. It’s an opportunity to learn, grow, and challenge preconceived notions.
Networking and Connection
In these meetings, you’ll find a community that genuinely cares. We don’t just discuss the issues; we hope to connect with one another, forging bonds as community advocates that extend beyond the screen. The connections you make here can be a source of inspiration and strength in your own journey.
