In recognition of Black Maternal Health Week 2025, Nurture KC is honoring legacies, fostering healing, and advocating for collective action to advance Black maternal health. We believe every Black mother deserves equitable, culturally affirming care and community-led solutions that create lasting change.

As part of this year’s observance, Nurture KC staff have shared their own Healing Legacies – personal reflections that highlight the importance of advocacy in strengthening Black maternal health. Join us in supporting policies and practices that uplift Black mothers, families, and communities.
