There is an error in the Authors Contributions statement. The correct Author Contributions should be stated as follows: “The article is the result of a community based research justice project involving a collaborative research team. All listed authors are members of the research team and participated in research design, participant recruitment, data collection and analysis. The article was co-written by JO and JJ. JO and JJ contributed equally to the manuscript.”

In the published article, there was an error regarding the affiliations for Linda Marie Jones, Sayida Prepah, and Jessica Walker. Instead of being affiliated with the University of California, all should have all been listed as affiliated with Black Women Birthing Justice.
