Sistas in health
Sista's in Health is a networking group committed to tackling the increasing health disparities experienced by Black women, with a specific focus on addressing chronic illnesses and mental health concerns. Studies show that women of African descent are more likely to suffer from health conditions like hypertension and diabetes and have a higher mortality rate from breast cancer. This initiative seeks to empower and encourage healthier lifestyles among these women and remove barriers.
Group's Core Objectives
Education and Empowerment: Sista in Health strives to empower Black women through comprehensive education on health matters. We provide vital resources, facilitate informative discussions, and offer expert guidance to equip Black women with the knowledge and skills they need to make informed decisions about their health.
Holistic Health Promotion: Our group promotes holistic health by emphasizing the importance of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. We recognize that a balanced approach to health is essential for overall quality of life.
Cultural Preservation: At Sista's in Health, we understand the significance of cultural identity. We host culturally sensitive events and activities to help Black women embrace healthier lifestyles while preserving their culture.
