The Black Long Covid Experience

Empowering Black Americans
Affected with Long Covid.

A message of care — post-election…

No matter how you voted, where you live, or what you believe, The Black Long Covid Experience wishes you rest, joy, and safety.

We believe in a future where our next President recognizes the impact of Long Covid and commits to supporting bills, campaigns, and initiatives that deliver education, resources, and treatment to you and your families as you navigate life with Long Covid.

I for one believe that if you give people a thorough understanding of what confronts them and the basic causes that produce it, they’ll create their own program, and when the people create a program, you get action.
— Malcolm X

Trusted. Consistent. Competent.

As a disabled activist and Director of The Black Long Covid Experience (BLCE), Chimére L. Sweeney draws from her own journey with Long Covid, advocating for care and policy change. A retired Maryland teacher, she deeply connects with Black urban communities and understands their distinct health needs of Black urban communities.

Compassionate Education that Will Help Define Long Covid for Black Communities.

We believe the first step to receiving comprehensive Long Covid care is collaborating to help you define the condition for yourself —and share that understanding with those you care about. Once you grasp how it affects you, you'll be empowered to advocate for and access the right medical care.
