BIF Speak

Neighborhood has invested in a two-year collaboration with BIF offering LunaYou as a free program to all of its members.

LunaYou was founded on the principle that women who endured racial and social discrimination on a day-to-day basis had an increased risk of poor maternal outcomes. Through trust, storytelling, and personal empowerment LunaYou is able to lower this risk.

On Wednesday, June 24, 2020 Michael Hawley passed away from colon cancer. We are grateful that he joined us on the BIF2019: Wellbeing stage. Michael shared his personal story of science, the miracle of birth, and the miracle of medicine.

Liz was 15 when she got pregnant. She was as much an American as a Cambodian feeling the constant pull between the two cultures. Liz’s familial support was very important during this time as she was caring for herself, her family and her baby.  They did the best they knew how without knowing all of the risks of teenage pregnancy.

BIF is thrilled to introduce — LunaYou: A Maternal Wellbeing Program Designed For You. LunaYou offers women the ability to manage risk factors, track their health and wellbeing goals, and access a Wellbeing Coach

#BIF2019: Wellbeing was magical, it truly struck a chord with me on multiple levels. This was a focused event on wellbeing - an important issue to all of us permeating all that we do. It was the first Summit I left with an action plan, one that I have already started, and am reaping the benefits. With the release of the Storyteller Videos, let's all keep the conversation going!
