Black Women For Wellness

Black Women For Wellness Black Women for Wellness started as sisterfriends with the Birthing Project in Los Angeles in 1997. Financial Contributors to BWW are tax deductible.

Black Women for Wellness is committed to healing, educating, inspiring, and supporting Black women, so we may tap our personal power to enhance and improve our health and well being. We began as a group of women concerned about the health and well-being of our babies.As grandmothers, mothers, aunties, daughters, and sisterfriends, we found we had no choice but to take on the plethora of health issues Black women encounter. As a non-profit, Black Women for Wellness is able to seek funding and accept donations to support our programs. BWW is a nonprofit corporation under Section 501 (c) (3) Revenue Code.

This October, we’re doing breast health differently. 💕✨

With B***S & BLING: BIGGER. BOLDER. BETTER., we’re moving beyond disease-focused conversations and talking about the breasts we live with every day. From body awareness and bra support to hormones, breastfeeding, menopause, pleasure, comfort, and knowing when something deserves attention.

✨ Bigger conversations beyond disease.
✨ Bolder questions without embarrassment.
✨ Better habits and body knowledge that support us all year long.

No fear. No shame. No reducing a Black woman to a diagnosis.

And we’re bringing it all together at our 4th Annual B***S & BLING Bra Party on October 18! RSVP for FREE at the link in our bio.

Today, on International Safe Abortion Day, we’re reminding our community that abortion is healthcare, and everyone deserves access to accurate information, safe care, and the freedom to make decisions about their own body.

For Black women, that freedom is reproductive justice. It means having the resources and support to decide if, when, and how we grow our families, without shame or unnecessary barriers.

Swipe to learn more, then visit www.bwwla.org/abortion-access for abortion access information, medication abortion resources, legal and financial support, digital safety resources, and more.

Know your options. Know your resources. 💜

This is conversation we need to be having so come sit with us! Brittinae Bell, Senior Education Manager for the Black Health Initiative at Planned Parenthood LA, is walking us through what’s actually happening in our bodies and how we can speak up for ourselves when we’re talking to our doctors. She’s been doing this work for almost ten years and knows how to make the conversation feel easy, not clinical.

We’ll open and close the evening with a little somatic movement, just enough to help everyone settle in and actually be present.
