Urban Perinatal Education Center
URBAN PERINATAL EDUCATION CENTER IS A CENTRALIZED COMMUNITY DESIGNED, RESPONSIVE, AND LED SAFE SPACE FOR PERINATAL PROFESSIONALS AND FAMILIES TO GAIN EDUCATION The Urban Perinatal Education Center wants to change the way you experience perinatal health and care The mission of Urban Perinatal Education is to create a space for perinatal equity through three lenses: culturally congruent care and community, supporting equity in care and building a workforce for change. Representation in health care matters and promotes health equity, supporting equity in care maternal health care inequities and disparities remain a symptom of institutional and systematic racism, especially in maternal health. Postpartum studies suggest that extra support and care is necessary to reduce such poor outcomes. Building a workforce for change because we know that communities empowered are the drivers for impact. This is more than recruitment but sustainability of both the community and its workforce race based equity pay is paramount to establishing justice.
