  • Our Doula network is directly impacting maternal health & end of life care on a local & statewide level through collaborative programs with community partners, legislative action & community-based research

  • "One of the many reasons I love being a part of the CO-OP is the community and resources at my fingertips. Our Doula’s are more than willing to share their experiences with other providers in the community, giving me peace of mind when I am making referrals for clients. I am also a huge fan of our Doula Access Program, and the way it allows us [Doulas] a voice on the mother’s maternity care team. I feel like as a group we are able to bring better maternity care outcomes to these families. It just feels good to say to my clients that I am a part of the DOULA CO-OP.”

  • “Becoming a Community Member of the doula co-op really pushed me to begin my work as a doula. It has provided me a community that has educated me, supported me, and held me accountable in this important yet sometimes challenging work. It has helped connect me with so many different resources in our community and with other doulas that are a wealth of knowledge and experience. I’m so grateful for the opportunities that the Doula Co-op has provided me and for the support and friendships I have found through it.”

    Claire Murdoch

  • “The Doula CO-OP has been an absolute blessing! Being a Community Member has allowed me to connect with other doulas, create relationships, and open up opportunities within the community. The CO-OP has spearheaded several events, trainings, and collaborations that have been outstanding. I feel seen, supported, and can participate in anything that I want to be part of. It’s been really amazing”
