She Matters

Founded in 2019, She Matters is a digital health platform designed to support Black mothers who experience postpartum comorbidities through providing access to culturally competent healthcare providers, culturally relevant resources, and community. We also train healthcare professionals on how to become better resources for Black mothers through our culturally competent certification. She Matters is the only digital health platform that offers a culturally competent certification tailored to the specific nuances and challenges related to being a Black woman. While creating the curriculum we focused on several key factors: reducing postpartum maternal mortality statistics, increasing return visits for Black mothers, and improving the relationship between provider and patient.

About Us

It began in 2018, when Jade hosted a sold out brunch in Newark, NJ. This was a safe space for Black women to discuss challenges with their mental health, especially after becoming mothers. In 2020 we began hosting virtual events to educate Black mothers on the symptoms of postpartum depression and anxiety. We provided validation in hopes to decrease the cultural stigma of seeking treatment for mental illness. In 2021, we developed a mobile application to provide community, culturally relevant resources, and culturally competent therapists. We also developed a culturally competent certification curriculum to train healthcare providers to become better resources to Black mothers. Our certification aims to reduce readmission rates and increase the six-week postpartum visit. In 2022, we will launch a Learning Management System to manage and distribute the culturally competent certification.
