In this vital episode of Brooklyn Savvy, host Toni Williams leads a powerful discussion on the alarming disparities in Black maternal health in Brooklyn, where one in three childbirth-related deaths occur. Joined by an esteemed panel including Dr. Leslie Hayes, Deputy Commissioner of Family and Child Health, Annette Perel, a Doula Mentor, Helena Grant, Co-chair of NYC's Maternal Morbidity Committee, and community leader Lisa Bing. From structural racism and implicit bias in healthcare to the lack of access to quality care and support, the panel explores the systemic issues driving the maternal mortality crisis among Black women. The experts also highlight the importance of doula care, advocacy, and community-driven solutions in saving lives and improving outcomes for Black mothers.
