THE PLEDGE

I pledge to:

1. Advocate for respectful and unbiased treatment of Black women by providers.

2. Spread the word about ways for Black women to receive the support they deserve to assist them in having healthy and joyous births, and for them and their child(ren) to enjoy good health.

3. Get involved, by either attending a meeting in my community, telling others about the issue, or sharing resources available at www.blackinfantsandfamilies.org

    I am a trained doula with a higher education background who is also trained in lactation (certified), hypnobirth, babywearing, music & movement for children under 5 (certified), and am currently in a year long postpartum training. I’d love to work together and will be on the look out for any future RFPs that apply to my areas of focus.
