Healthy Beginnings for Levadeh: Let’s Support Black Families in Metro Detroit!
In the realm of maternal health, differences and disparities in care exist, particularly impacting Black mothers. Levadeh: Healthy Beginnings, based in Detroit, MI is dedicated to addressing these challenges, in our first Health Initiative, by partnering with providers, pairing pregnant families with education & advocacy, and organizing community support. Our mission is to enrich individuals and empower communities to experience abundance in Health, Education, Relationships, and Ownership.
