Black women in the United States disproportionately experience adverse maternal health outcomes across income and education levels compared to women of other racial and ethnic groups. Still, there is limited knowledge about Black immigrants in the U.S. Black immigrants will make up about a third of the U.S. Black population by 2060. There is urgency in supporting their pregnancy and birthing outcomes. This study will conduct secondary analyses of existing data and also focus groups with Black immigrant birthing people to identify factors in the health care system that can support optimal pregnancy and birthing outcomes.
