Women's Health Promotion

Women's Health Promotion

woman sitting on sidewalkThe Women’s Health Promotion (WHP) program helps pregnant and parenting African American women have healthy babies through care coordination, linkages to community resources, and support.

The program’s two goals are to:

  • Provide support and health education during pregnancy
  • Provide assistance with problem-solving, and advocacy for care during a pregnancy

Women’s Health Promotion Navigators will provide support, community referrals, health education and information. They will also initiate the development of a client-centered Reproductive & Life Plan (RLP).

The Women’s Health Promotion Navigators will be housed in community hubs in the target area’s three priority neighborhoods.  This approach will ensure our services are accessible and convenient. Navigators will support families in person at a hub, in the community, at your home and by phone.

Call our main line at (510) 618-2080 and you will be directed to a Community Hub near you.
