Together, we can uplift, encourage, and support one another to ensure we all have the information and resources we need to be healthy right now and well into the future.

SHEA (Sharing Health Education and Awareness) is a targeted, community-centered approach focused on reducing health disparities and rates of chronic disease among Black women in Jackson, Hancock, and Harrison counties.

Our Focus Areas

We are focused on increasing access to healthcare and sharing information about healthy behaviors among Black women in four key areas.

Fight Flu

Breastfeeding

Tobacco Cessation

Active Living

Community Health Referrals

Sharing With

Our Sisters

Our bodies are a source of life and nourishment for our children and our communities, so taking control of our health means taking control of our future. Your story about breastfeeding, quitting tobacco, or becoming more active can help other Black women make healthy choices for themselves and those they care about.
