My Black Health is Beautiful

Together as partners – Melinated Moms, New Jersey Black Women Physicians Association, Planned Parenthood of Northern, Central, and Southern New Jersey (PPNCSNJ), Salvation and Social Justice, and Southern New Jersey Perinatal Cooperative – we have created My Black Health Is Beautiful, a new lesson plan series at the intersection of reproductive and Black maternal health.

The lessons are written by Black women for the Black community. These lesson plans are a collaboration between partner organizations with financial support from Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s Fund for the Future program. The lesson plans seek to facilitate conversation among young people, people who may become parents, and people who are already parents, around the topics of Black intergenerational and holistic health, reproductive anatomy and physiology, self-advocacy, and reproductive justice.
