Presenting Organization: San Diego County Health and Human Services
Submission Title: Ensure infants born who are served by the Black Infant Health (BIH) Program will have positive health outcomes

Submission Overview:  African-American infants in San Diego County are more likely to die, be born preterm, and have low birthweights compared to White infants. The County’s Black Infant Health (BIH) Program aims to improve birth and maternal health outcomes for African-American families by changing systems that contribute to social injustices, economic disparities, and racial and health inequities. BIH uses a group-based approach with complementary client-centered case management to help participants develop life skills, strategies to reduce stress, and build social support. Pregnant women are empowered to make positive choices in their life, not only for themselves, but for future generations.
