About BLKBRY

"Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots"

Keep Ya Head Up

Song by Tupac Shakur

BLKBRY® is spelled with letters missing for reason. It has purpose and intention. It is spelled this way to acknowledge that there is much missing in Black reproductive, perinatal, and Black infant healthcare, and BLKBRY strives to fill in the gaps. And just like a blackberry, we are rooted in our community.

BLKBRY is a culturally responsive, evidence and practiced based intervention to mitigate the impacts of structural racism. We share cultural parity with Black folks and families to provide individualized reproductive support, birth planning and education, and support through their reproductive, perinatal, postpartum, lactation and parenting journey.


We believe that Black people with both learned and lived experience must be the leaders, drivers, and implementers of this work to make true change.


We believe that life is filled with transformative experiences, and having support during those experiences is an essential way to change outcomes and create positive stories. BLKBRY provides culturally affirming support and practices because we value the traditional and ancestral knowledge and ways of holistic care that continue to be practiced around the world. These practices can increase a person's confidence, help them feel grounded and connected, as well as affirmed in their identity and culture.


Our philosophy includes the principle of radical consent and honesty. We recognize the ways that culturally diverse communities continue to face challenges in accessing health care that respects their agency and decision making power. Your body and your baby is your own and we support you to make informed decisions every step of the way.

Mission

BLKBRY's mission is to create holistic, empowered, and culturally-affirmed experiences with sexual education, conception, pregnancy, and all pregnancy-outcomes including birth, miscarriage, loss and abortion. We empower one another and our community in our respective ancestral traditions as we uplift our community's physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health.

Values

We dream of a world where Black pregnant and birthing people regardless of status, sexuality, gender, class, age, religion, and ability have access to the care, respect, and services that they need to have positive experiences in the transformative moments of their lives. 


BLKBRY also invests in the Black healthcare ecosystem. Our priority of connection and collaborative care is to building relationships and community with specialists, providers, and community-based organizations and clinics that reflect the community we serve. We invest in our community by also purchasing and stocking items from Black-owned businesses. We strive to purchase from those that are local the Pacific Northwest. We remain intentional about our impact on the cultural economy of the Puget Sound Area.
