Doula services: we provide culturally relevant, inclusive, and full spectrum doula services, supporting all pregnancy and postpartum outcomes. We center the most marginalized communities including bipoc, lgbtqia+ individuals and families by providing doula support and care that is accessible and advocacy rooted. We believe doulas should be compensated for their labor and that this work should create sustainability for doulas while still being accessible to those who have need but can't afford it. We offer these services through various means including out of pocket, sliding scale, grant funded services, medi-cal/medi-caid, and clinics/partnerships/hospitals/institutions/jails.
Workshop and community education: our collective is made up of a wide variety of cultural and ethnic backgrounds, of professions, of experts, and of people with various lived experiences/traditions/and knowledge that are beneficial to share with the broader communities. Our workshops and education are rooted in advocacy, in cultural relevance, and in increasing positive health experiences while feeling empowered and supported. Our workshops and education range from reproductive justice, to informed consent, lactation support, childbirth education, indigenous practices, advocacy, and more. It is important that are offerings are inclusive, intentional, and accessible to the communities they are happening in.
