iDREAM for Racial Health Equity, a Project of Community Partners

, California, United States • 1 - 10 Employees

The mission of i.D.R.E.A.M. for Racial Health Equity, a project of Community Partners®, is to equip a learning community of visionaries with a comprehensive understanding of maternal and infant health throughout the life course. The i.D.R.E.A.M. Vision 2025: Inspiring Generational Champions for Resilience and Good Health continues a commitment to answer an urgent call for leadership, training, advocacy and community service on behalf of Black birthing families. Our model is rooted in the institutional memory from the State of California's legislation for Black Infant Health (1989); guided by the organizational history as the Pasadena Birthing Project (1994-2011) also known as the 34th Stop on the Underground Railroad for New Life (Birthing Project USA); and informed by lived experiences from Black birthing families in Los Angeles County. 2019 marked the 25th anniversary of our storied mission and we were recognized by the former Honorable Holly J. Mitchell as "Nonprofit of the Year" for the 30th State Senatorial District. In June 2021, The California Black Freedom Fund announced i.D.R.E.A.M. as one of 74 grantees within the State of California.
