This community is designed to support families of color at all stages; without pressure to perform, overshare, or have everything figured out.
Here's how to get the most out of this space:
1ļøā£ Start where you are
You don't need to read everything or post immediately. Some members observe first. Others jump in. Both are welcome.
2ļøā£ Use the community for issues real to you
This is a place to ask questions and share
experiences related to:
- Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum
- Parenting across childhood and adolescence
- Planning, transitions, and decision-making
- Navigating systems that weren't built with our families in mind
3ļøā£ Respect lived experience
Families of color navigate healthcare, education, and institutions differently. We center:
- Cultural awareness
- Lived experience
- Evidence-based guidance
4ļøā£ Share at your comfort level
You decide what and how much you share. Listening and learning are forms of participation, too.
5ļøā£ Ask for what you need
If you're stuck, preparing for a transition, or feeling unsure, post about it. Clear questions help the community support you better.
A simple way to engage š
If you haven't yet, introduce yourself by sharing:
- Your current stage of family life
- One area where support would be helpful right now
This space exists to offer context, clarity, and community. I'm glad you're here.
