Expecting Justice wants every birth to be a healthy birth within San Francisco’s Black and Pacific Islander (PI) populations by the year 2030 and that providers, public health professionals, and institutional leaders who interact with pregnant women have a shared understanding of and sense of responsibility to address racism and racial health disparities.

Expecting Justice has three strategic focus areas that complement one another to address key dimensions of vulnerability faced by Black and PI women and people during pregnancy and childbirth: interpersonal and institutional racism in the healthcare and public health systems, plus structural racism manifested as the racial wealth gap. Based on deep engagement with community members and other stakeholders, we believe this combined approach is imperative to ensure safe and healthy childbirth for Black and PI mothers in our city.
