Groundswell Fund: Birth Justice Fund

The Birth Justice Fund awards grants to organizations in the U.S. working to increase access to empowering and culturally relevant birthing options and promote changes in policy and practice aimed at improving birth outcomes. To date, the Fund has supported 18 organizations.

The United States spends the most of any industrialized country on childbirth, yet ranks 50th in the world for maternal mortality. This problem is even more acute for certain communities. African American women, for example, are four times more likely to die of childbirth related complications than white women and, according to current CDC data, their infant mortality rate is 2.4 times the rate for white women. Native American women face infant mortality rates at 1.5 times the rate of white women. In the past 15 years, cesarean rates had their sharpest increase (57 percent) in young women under the age of 25. Additionally, there are a significantly higher percentage of babies of color born prematurely or with low birth weight than white babies due to lack of access to adequate prenatal care and other inequities.

Midwifery and doula care are changing these outcomes by providing low-cost, high-quality care where it might not otherwise exist; reducing the rate of hospital interventions like cesarean birth; and lowering infant and maternal mortality rates among vulnerable populations.

TMCF has identified four buckets of needs related to how HBCUs and their
students are impacted by COVID-19:

• Emergency Funding for Students: This large bucket includes lost income due to job loss which can lead to an inability to pay for rent or food, food insecurity for those whose meal plans have been canceled but are remaining in their apartments, broken leases (without force majeure) for students returning home who lived off-campus, storage, and other unforeseen costs.

• Technology for students to participate in online coursework: Students returning home often do not have access to reliable internet, laptops, computers, or hot spots on their mobile devices.

• Mental health support: One of the greatest needs that TMCF memberschools have identified is support for enhanced mental health services for their students. Students are experiencing an upheaval in their lives, being asked to quickly vacate their dorm rooms, losing their jobs, or being forced back into a housing or food insecure situation at home.
