Reducing Implicit Bias in Maternal and Child Health 2nd Edition is a comprehensive course divided into four parts. It aims to dissect both the conscious and unconscious biases present in individuals, particularly focusing on their effects on healthcare access and treatment for Black and Brown women. The course also delves into interventions crafted to eradicate these biases.

Dr. Meika Neblett, MD, who leads equity in clinical care at RWJBarnabas Health and holds positions as the Chief Medical Officer and Chief Academic Officer at Community Medical Center serves as the faculty for this course.

In its second iteration, this important course is complimentary, thanks to funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention through the N.J. Perinatal Quality Collaborative. It provides credits in continuing medical education and continuing nursing education.
