Hello and Welcome!!
Created and written by licensed professionals in the healthcare industry, HealthandBlackness.com is a blog that discusses health and wellness topics that particularly affect minority women. We are a group of African American women who are passionate about sharing our knowledge with others in order to improve health disparities and outcomes in our community. We will discuss the prevention and management of various diseases that are known to disproportionately affect minority women; offer advice about safe medication use; provide techniques for developing healthy eating habits; and so much more.
We invite you to not only read our posts, but to join in on the discussion. Feel free to ask questions, and share what you’ve learned with others. Please be sure to “like” our Health & Blackness page on Facebook to get access to our latest discussions. You can also follow us on Twitter @HealthNBlkness. If there are any topics you would like us to discuss, please send us a Facebook message on our Health & Blackness page or email us at HealthandBlackness@gmail.com.
We’re looking forward to working with you to make our community happier and healthier–physically, emotionally, and mentally!
Thanks this is needed in our community.
Can’t wait to see what’s to come 🙂
I love the simple wording that is made for everyone to read—it doesn’t talk “over people’s head”. Looks great and I’m excited about the good reads in store!
Thanks maam!
This is wonderful. Excellently written. I am excited about it and look forward to new posts. Also eager to read all comments.
Thanks!!
Thanks for the much needed detailed advice on how to rein myself in from self inflicted abuse. Your advice on how to set “smart” goals is a welcomed guide that is easy to follow. Now all I have to do is be “smart” and heed the advice.
So glad you enjoyed it!! Will be praying for you on your journey. If there’s anything I can do to help, please don’t hesitate to let me know 🙂
I like how each article was broken down into laymans terms.
Thank you for the positive feedback Kawanyza! It is truly my desire to keep it simple! The better we can understand something, the better we can apply it in our daily lives. Please keep checking in for new posts, and tell a friend about the things you’re learning.
