Mama, have you found your tribe? Do you need support on your mothering journey?

Brown Mamas has been supporting and championing the Black mothering experience for over a decade.  Through community, content and events we seek to connect Black mothers to the people, experiences and spaces that help them raise happy, healthy adults and thrive beyond motherhood.  Below check out the many ways you can get involved and begin cultivating the tribe you need to thrive.

Meet Moms

Brown Mama Meetups

Is it time to find your tribe? Brown Mamas host meetups to help you make mommy and community connections. From finding mom friends, to learning about spaces and places in Pittsburgh and making space for your to connect with your family and yourself, we have mom-only and family-friendly meetups.

Self-Care Saturday

Self-Care Saturday Live

When it’s time to take care of you, Brown Mamas has you covered. Offering virtual and in-person sessions, we keep moms, locally and nationally, centered and mindful. We host sessions focused on meditation, yoga, financial peace, skincare and sound healing each quarter that center the lived experiences of Black mothers.

Brown Mama Monologues

African-American mothers take the stage to tell their most vulnerable stories around black motherhood in America. Our moms leave all of their mom guilt, co-parenting woes, funny stories about childbirth and more right on the floor of the stage. Their stories we uplift our crowd with parent-centered comedic acts, uplifting and empowering performances and awards recognizing the local champions of Black motherhood right in their own backyards.
