Join us for an engaging and thought-provoking conversation as we explore the ⁠Irth App⁠, a groundbreaking app designed as a "Yelp-like" platform, specifically tailored to Black and Brown parents, where important reviews within the full perinatal spectrum are used to combat bias and racism within maternity and infant care, creating a more inclusive and just environment for all.
