Cherished Futures is a unique, multi-sector collaborative initiative that aims to reduce Black infant mortality and improve patient experience and safety for Black mothers and birthing people. The project is currently centered in Los Angeles County, though the need exists throughout the region. Guided by the data and grounded in Black women’s experiences, Cherished Futures we bring together decisionmakers from local birthing hospitals, public health departments, health plans, and Black women community leaders to co-design systems-change solutions at the clinical, institutional, and community levels.
Cherished Futures is a joint initiative of the Public Health Alliance, Communities Lifting Communities, and the Hospital Association of Southern California.
