Confronting Racial Bias In Maternal Deaths

Transform Care. Advance Equity. Save Lives.

Healthcare outcomes are not just shaped by clinical skill, but by awareness, bias, communication, and trust. Our training programs are designed to help professionals move beyond standard practice and into equitable, culturally responsive care that honors the full humanity of every patient.

At i.D.R.E.A.M. for Racial Health Equity, we don’t just train, we transform how care is delivered. As cultural humility practitioners, we reimagine the Black maternal and infant health narrative with storytelling and data sharing and reframe the conversation from death and dying (mortality and morbidity) to healing and hope throughout the life course. Our conference presentations, panel discussions, keynotes, faculty research collaborations, guest lecturing and community talks continue to agitate and accelerate hospital systems change in the present.

Interprofessional Education (I.P.E.)

A Whole-System Approach to Better Care

Our I.P.E. programs bring together professionals across disciplines, medical, public health, and social services, to:

  • Understand the impact of racial bias on maternal and infant outcomes
  • Integrate cultural humility into everyday practice
  • Strengthen collaboration across care teams
  • Improve communication with Black birthing families

We bridge research, real stories, and clinical application, so learning translates into action.
