About the event
Join Doulas of Douglas County, Kansas Birth Equity Network, and Trust Women for a community screening and panel discussion during Black Maternal Health Week.
"Giving birth is a battleground for too many Black women and their babies. Going behind the statistics, “Birthing Justice” places Black women at the center of the fight to fix a broken system for all women in this country. It focuses on the progress being made by those on the frontline of this fight and highlights solutions that can be replicated in communities across the country." Learn more at www.birthingjustice.com
Doors will open at 5:30 PM and the film will start at 6 PM.
This event was made possible through a community grant provided by Douglas County Community Foundation.
