We Believe in Black Mamas

Perinatal Health Equity Initiative specializes in providing culturally congruent support for Black mamas in Essex and Union County New Jersey.

Our mission is to support healthy outcomes for both mother and infant. We operate Mon-Friday from 9-5 p.m. and offer evening and weekend support as needed. We partner each client with a community health worker to assist them in navigating their journey through motherhood. As needed, care from Registered Nurses (RN) and International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLC) are incorporated into the care plan.

In addition to clinical care, we also offer the following services:

  • Financial Support
  • Transportation
  • Classes
  • Baby Items, Diapers & Wipes
  • Breastpumps
  • Blood Pressure Cuffs
  • Postpartum and Breastfeeding Support
