Abstrakt:	Pelvic floor disorders are a group of common conditions affecting women of all racial and ethnic groups. These disorders are undertreated in all women, but this is especially magnified in Black people who have been historically marginalized in the United States. This article seeks to highlight the prevalence of pelvic floor disorders in Black women, evaluate the clinical care they receive, examine barriers they face to equitable care, and present a strategic agenda to prioritize the care of Black women with pelvic floor disorders. Competing Interests: Disclosures Dr M.F. Ackenbom received grant funding from the NIH National Institute on Aging (K23AG073517–01), the Pennsylvania Department of Health (4,100,088,553), and the Alzheimer's Association.
