This is Us
We are mothers, sisters, community members, and justice advocates working to make the world a better place.
Equity Before Birth is nonprofit based in North Carolina, that improves the pregnancy and birth outcomes of mothers and babies by eliminating financial barriers to accessing pregnancy care and support. We partner with Black and Brown-led birth workers who already serve our target population in order to provide families with culturally-affirming and dignified, respectful care.
​
Equity Before Birth is pioneering an unprecedented and innovative approach to address the maternal mortality crisis. We invite you to partner with us to improve maternal and infant mortality, enhance birth experiences, and save lives!​​
EBB uses philanthropy to remove financial barriers to maternal health, invest in community-rooted providers, support families’ economic stability, and bring what we learn from families into systems-change work.
