As the Alliance for Black NICU Families™ stands together, we stand with them and with all African American families.


Details from the organization:

The Alliance for Black NICU Families™ is conducting a survey to capture the impact of racism's reach in our community - in the NICU, NICU discharge, and at home in the community of specialists.

Black NICU Moms and Dads, if you could complete this survey (it allows you to do so anonymously, if you so choose).

WE NEED YOU. Our team has aligned Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and preemie-focused organizations many of which are African-American led to promote racial equality in the NICU. We are conducting a survey to capture the impact of racism's reach in our community - in the NICU, NICU discharge, and at home in the community of specialists.

YOUR VOICE MATTERS MORE THAN EVER. Why? Because we will be taking this information speaking up to associations and various boards of certification for neonatology, pediatrics and more . We want to request that they make a change to their continuing education requirements to require at least 2 hours of education about racism in the preemie community with direct insights from families who experienced direct and indirect racism through their preemie journey so that we reach all preemie professionals - newer professionals and the older ones, too. Tell us your stories, tell us your frustrations. We will use that to weave your voice into our strategies for change by adding it to our letters across the country and the world.

PRIVACY. We realize this is a sensitive topic and want to assure you that your privacy will be maintained. Providing your email address to us is only being used if we need to reach you to clarify your responses. Feel free to remain anonymous.

FILL THIS OUT AND PLEASE SHARE!

We can only make real change with real transparency and real numbers.

It starts with each of us. Let's do this!
