"Jacqueline Lois (nee Strachan) is a native New Yorker. Born on 135th Street in Harlem in 1954. As archivist, elevating the experience of Black women who heal the harm perpetrated by the forced separations of families.

Venerating her ancestors she boldly calls forth their guidance.

With a Certificate in Nurse Midwifery from the University of Dentistry’s School of Health-Related Professions and early credentialing as the first wave of Lactation Consultants, she treasures most what she learned in nursing her two children.
