In service to our vision of building a more humane and just health system that integrates patient experiences and community wisdom of Black women, girls, and gender expansive individuals into improvement and implementation initiatives affecting quality and patient safety, Birthing Cultural Rigor (BCR) is presenting the 2nd Obstetric Patient Safety Summit, February 19 to February 23, 2025 on the campus of Nashville Marriott at Vanderbilt University.

Our OPSS 2025 theme is "Championing Birth Justice for and with Black and Native Youth". We will be applying the SACKRED Birth framework to the hospital birthing experiences of Black and Native young adults, aged 18 to 25 years.

OPSS remains the first and only Black Woman-focused summit to address obstetric racism as an adverse event that harms Black mothers and gender expansive parents, their newborns, and their given and chosen kin, during labor, childbirth and immediate postpartum in U.S. hospital settings.

We invite you to consider the vital role of an OPSS 2025 sponsor. OPSS is designed for individuals, industries, associations, or organizations with influence in the following areas: obstetric racism, obstetric violence, abolitionist movement, quality, patient safety, health care financing, medical billing, medical coding, medical reimbursement, pharmacological and medical device industries, public health, public health law, social sciences, medical humanities, human rights/civil rights/birth justice attorneys, health care advocacy, health care law, public policy, quality improvement, implementation science, dissemination science, data science, measurement science, philanthropy, and legislative action and advocacy, chronic disease, postpartum care, community health, and health care.

As a summit, OPSS 2025 aims to:
- prepare participants to transform hospital-based improvement and implementation initiatives by studying the problem of obstetric racism and the predetermined agenda and participating in pre-summit online and in-person experiential learning activities.
- discuss big ideas, tackle big-picture questions, and generate improvement and implementation solutions for U.S. maternal-perinatal industries on a micro-, meso-, or macro-scale.
- facilitate registered participants to critically, creatively, and compassionately think of ways to recognize, report, and reconcile with obstetric racism ahead of time, strengthening participation in large and small group breakout sessions.
- build practical knowledge and skills of participants to walk away with cutting-edge, scalable solutions for addressing obstetric racism and advancing obstetric patient safety for Black women, girls, and gender-expansive individuals, and their given and chosen kin.
