According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Black women are three times more likely to die from a pregnancy related cause than white women. This week is Black Maternal Health Week, which is recognized every year from April 11 to 17. It’s a way to raise awareness about that inequity and improve Black maternal health in the future. Jekisha Elliott is the owner of Jendayi Doula Services in Durham, which incorporates yoga and stretching into her clients’ services. Elliott joined Jeff Hamlin on the WPTF Afternoon News to discuss Jendayi Doula Services.
