Black Women's Health Initiative
The Black Women's Health Initiative (B-WHI) is a research and advocacy program focused on understanding and improving health outcomes for Black women. It studies how factors like genetics, environment, and social conditions influence diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease. By gathering data and raising awareness, B-WHI aims to develop better healthcare practices, reduce health disparities, and empower Black women to take control of their health. The initiative emphasizes culturally sensitive approaches and collaborates with communities to foster equitable health solutions.
