Grandmothers Rallying Against Maternal Mortality & Morbidity Sisterhood! (GRAMMS)
When a Black woman dies from preventable maternal complications, the pain doesn’t stop with her. It echoes through generations. Her mother is often the one left to carry the weight ~ raising the surviving child, managing legal challenges, and holding deep, unimaginable grief.
GRAMMS (Grandmothers Rallying Against Maternal Mortality Sisterhood) is both a sanctuary and a source of POWER!
This free program was created for women who have experienced this kind of loss, offering a space to grieve, to be heard, and to be held in community.
Through virtual and in-person gatherings, workshops, and expert-led sessions, GRAMMS provides emotional support, legal and financial guidance, and tools to become effective advocates for change.
It’s not therapy, but it is deeply therapeutic.
Participants connect virtually with others who’ve experienced similar losses, attend workshops led by culturally responsive experts, and learn how to transform their stories into tools for impact.
GRAMMS is not just a support group but a movement rooted in love, resilience, and truth.
Every GRAMMS member becomes a guardian of legacy. Together, we honor the women we've lost by protecting the lives yet to come.
