HOMELESS CHILDREN’S NETWORK MISSION STATEMENT

BLACK BIRTHING HEALTH PROGRAM OVERVIEW:
Homeless Children's Network’s (HCN) Black Birthing Health Initiative (BBHI) is a comprehensive, vital community wellness program aimed at addressing the unique needs of Black/African American birthing individuals and their families in San Francisco. It mitigates, and where possible, removes barriers to care for Black/African American birthing persons, their children, spouses/partners. These barriers include the stigma associated with mental illness, distrust of the healthcare system, absence of culturally competent providers from diverse backgrounds, and lack of insurance or underinsurance. BBHI will contribute to ensuring that every Black/African American mother and birthing person has a strong support system in preconception, throughout pregnancy and childbirth, and postpartum. We envision a future of quality, universal maternal mental health access with equitable outcomes for all Black/African American San Franciscans and their families.
This initiative is designed to promote mental health and wellness, provide client-centered and culturally tailored care, and ensure accessibility to essential services. BBHI offers a comprehensive range of services tailored to the unique needs of Black/African American birthing individuals and their families in San Francisco.
POSITION SUMMARY:
The Black Birthing Health Community Referral & Engagement Specialist is dedicated and proactive. The specialist will play a crucial role in ensuring timely access to services for all client referrals, tracking referrals, appointments, and partnerships, and assisting with outreach and community engagement efforts. This position offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact by promoting the Black birthing health initiative, connecting clients with essential resources, and fostering community partnerships to support Black maternal health. This role will work to engage Black Mothers in our community, through events, city meetings, and local partnerships.
