diversity, inclusion, equity & accessibility
Momentum Park supports diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility. Our employees, contractors, populations served, and partners represent diverse backgrounds all aligned with our mission to advance justice and equity in pregnancy and birth outcomes.
We embrace the tenets of trust-based philanthropy into practice, including the belief that people who are closest to the experience of race, class, and gender injustice are best suited to devise solutions to counter it. Therefore, our internal teams predominately represent the populations we serve. We promote a welcoming, anti-racist and harassment free work-environment that supports mental health, well-being and work-life balance emphasizing self-care, dignity and respect.
Advancing racial justice and birth equity requires multiple invested stakeholders. To this regard, we welcome partnerships with all persons, organizations and entities of varying races, gender, age, sexual orientation, ability/disability, religion, marital & parental status, socioeconomic and veteran status.
Women's Rights in America...
On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court’s (SCOTUS) ruling on Dobbs vs. Jackson Women’s Health Organization overturned Roe V. Wade. The decision will have a longstanding impact on the rights of women to choose when, if and how to start and/or expand their families. Lower income, rural and women of color will undoubtedly be most impacted by the decision.
The SCOTUS landmark decision represents another systemic barrier impacting women’s health and perpetuating racial & ethnic disparities. We at MOMentum Park, “where moms come first and every moment matters,” will ALWAYS advocate for the rights of all women to make the best decisions for their individual circumstances in partnership with their trusted healthcare providers and chosen “friends and family”.
Black lives Matter
In 2020, the world saw first-hand the inequities Black Americans still suffer in the United States due to long standing racism and injustice. Police brutality, discrimination, racial profiling and even COVID19 disproportionately impact Black Americans.
We stand in solidarity with advocates and organizations against bigotry, violence, discrimination, injustices and systemic racism.
We embrace diversity, inclusion and equity as reflected in our diverse team and board members. We remember Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, David McAtee, Tony McDade, Sandra Bland, Trevon Martin, Philando Castile and countless other victims of injustices across the nation.
