The Black Mamas Matter Alliance serves as a global entity working to advance Black maternal health, rights, and justice, and uplifts the work of locally based, Black-led and Black women-led maternal health initiatives and organizations. We honor the work and historical contributions of Black women’s leadership within their communities. We value the need to recognize, amplify, and support this work on a national scale. For this reason, BMMA does not have chapters. The alliance is composed of existing organizations and individuals whose work is deeply rooted in reproductive justice, respectful maternity care, birth justice, and the human rights frameworks. Affiliation within the Alliance as an official Partner and Collaborator is on a case-by-case, invite-only annual basis.
