Introducing Shawnee Benton Gibson, one of our 2024 Public Health Solutions Annual Gala Reception honorees! This year, our theme "Reproductive Justice, Dignified Care" aims to honor those at the forefront of addressing Black maternal health disparities. As the CEO of Spirit of A Woman (S.O.W.) Leadership Development Institute and the Co-Founder of the ARIAH Foundation, Shawnee has over 33 years of experience and expertise in the subject matter. We are proud to stand alongside leaders like Shawnee in the fight to advance health equity in NYC and improve maternal health outcomes. #PHSGala2024 #BlackMaternalHealth #BlackMamasMatter
