At NAABB we believe that all Black women and birthing persons are entitled to respectful, equitable, and high-quality pre and postpartum care.

The Black Birthing Bill of Rights is a resource for every Black person that engages in maternity and perinatal care. We want each Black woman and birthing person to know their rights and to have the tools to confidently exercise these rights. The Bill of Rights also serves as guidance for government programs, hospitals, maternity providers and others as they transform their policies, procedures, and practices to meet the needs of Black birthing people.
