Tiny Toes, Big PlanetA program that aims to create sustainable postpartum families in marginalized communities in Louisville, KY. At Black Birth Justice,, we envision a community where every Black and Brown family receives the support and resources they need to thrive during the postpartum period and beyond. Led by Black women, we are dedicated to fostering transformative support systems that uplift and empower families through every stage of their journey.The 30 families that attended these events gained a wealth of knowledge and went home with tools to make environmentally conscious choices. These resources simultaneously help alleviate the financial hardships of new parenthood.
