The Brooklyn Coalition for Health Equity for Women and Families, formerly the Brooklyn Task Force on Infant and Maternal Mortality and Family Health also known as The Brooklyn Infant Mortality Reduction Initiative (BIMRI), is a coalition of Community-Based Organizations (CBO) was formed in 2000 to provide a forum to engage community-based health and human service providers and other community stakeholders in partnerships and collaborative activities that address the disparities in maternal health and birth outcomes in communities of color. The Coalition’s prime goal is to bring about improvement in the infant mortality rate by linking people to available services they need to promote health and to prevent infant/maternal mortality.

We offer assistance with Children's Services, Family Services and Pregnancy-Related Care for Brooklyn Resident who are pregnant and/or parenting infants or young children. We provide (1) outreach and case finding; (2) referrals to other organizations for health, case management and support services, (3) school and community health presentations and information sessions; community health awareness events.

If you are a Brooklyn Resident who is pregnant and/or parenting infants or young children, contact us for more information about the services we provide. This is a collaborative project with several other Brooklyn community-based organizations that participate in the Coalition.
