Black Moms* Connect 

A unique space for Black international moms*

They say “It takes a village to raise a child” and these days the village looks like online mom* groups. However, not all these parenting groups are inclusive of the needs, concerns, and experiences of Black moms*. Black moms* have these unique experiences related to culture and social climate that does not always fit well in parenting groups. That is why the Black Moms* Connect group is very important. The Black Moms* Connect group will provide a fun and relaxed space for Black mothers* to get to know each other. It will provide a safe space to communicate without judgment. Black Moms* Connect aims to bring together a community of Black mothers* living in Germany and provide a safe space where mothers* can receive love, acceptance and find continuous support. We know the famous saying it takes a village to raise a child, it also takes one to support a mom*.
