Birth justice includes the right to make informed decisions during pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. Birth justice requires that care is free from harm, coercion, unwanted medical interventions, and cultural incompetence. 

Birth justice in action looks like:
*Your right to choose your provider
*Your right to informed care
*Your right to have the birth partner(s) of your choice
*Your right to be heard
*Respect and care for your identity and personhood
*Your right to a birth plan that is centered by everyone
*And much more….
If you are pregnant or considering pregnancy, join us for our Birth Justice Series at Sankofa Pregnancy Village. Free & Virtual for families in Syracuse. 

Sankofa Pregnancy Village is a space of affirmation, wisdom sharing, and communal education for soon-to-be mamas and pregnant people.
