Wednesday Webinar - Racism in the Birth Center Setting

Racism in the Birth Center Setting

While we see improved birth outcomes for Black birthing folks within the birth center setting, there is still much work to be done to make giving birth safe for Black communities. This insightful presentation by Dr. Leslie Farrington, retired New York City OB/GYN, is a discussion of the racial disparities that still exist, how we address the the reality of implicit bias in a system that has ingrained racism into us, and steps to take to foster a safer birthing environment in your birth center.
