About Black Women's Blueprint
Black Women’s Blueprint now lives inside Restore Forward. When Black Women’s Blueprint began, it sought to fill a need for spaces and services designed by and for Black women and survivors to heal from trauma and violence. Having advanced these goals and navigated momentous change, we recognize that in order to sustain and grow, we must build on the learnings of our past and transition to a future where Black women can live lives of sovereignty and dignity and change the course and discourse around power.
What We Do
Health & Healing
We provide health and holistic healing programs that invite individuals into what it means to heal within their historical, cultural and political context while helping them access the personal agency to access what is possible in their lives and relationships when they begin to show up as their fully embodied selves. We operate as a lifeline for survivors of gender-based violence and provide birth education and holistic care to persons needing maternal health.
Mobile Services
With our mobile services, we are increasing food accessibility, holistic healing, and reproductive health with three mobile units, including a forthcoming mobile clinic, Sistas Van and Veggie Van. We're creating new paradigms for decolonizing health by bringing life-saving devices to communities, families and individuals across New York.
Racial Equity
Through a Design for Equity framework, we help systems to pivot and build institutional capacity to implement culturally responsive, diverse and inclusive practices. Our advocacy work centers the voices and needs of Black women and girls. In our efforts toward racial equity, we partner across differences to accelerate change. We mobilize a gender justice lens in our racial justice work to embody our values of gender equity. We model health equity through a multi-disciplinary community of medical and mental health professionals and stakeholders, culturally responsive to communities experiencing health disparities.
