Summary
It’s a fact that Black women and birthing people experience infant and maternal mortality, maternal morbidity, and preterm birth at higher rates than most other groups in the United States. Achieving a vision of birth equity at the population level requires cross-sector partnerships and system-level changes.
This report summarizes the findings of a multipart project that the UCSF California Preterm Birth Initiative conducted, in partnership with the First 5 Center for Children’s Policy, to understand the challenges and opportunities to improve the birth outcomes and experiences of Black people and their families in California.
