Created with us, not for us.
Where We Begin
Mama Said... is in its formative stage and that is intentional. We believe meaningful solutions begin by listening to the people whose lives and experiences are at the center of the work. Rather than developing programs first and seeking community input later, we are beginning with conversation.
Tell us what matters to you. Share your experiences, questions, and perspectives about intergenerational communication, sexual health, and healthcare. What we hear from Black women across generations will help shape our priorities.
We welcome conversations with community organizations, healthcare professionals, public health agencies, and others who share our commitment to Black women's health.
Researchers, educators, health professionals, community leaders, and other professionals can contribute knowledge and perspectives that help us understand complex issues and develop evidence-informed, culturally meaningful approaches.
Help Mama Said... build the foundation needed to develop sustainable, community-centered initiatives.
You don't need a title, credential, or professional affiliation to bring expertise to this work. Lived experience is expertise, too.
