BMBFA Calls for Doula Network to Help Pregnant Moms.
Recently featured in The Detroit News, we’re calling for the creation of a statewide community doula network to address Michigan’s devastating maternal and infant mortality rates, especially in Black communities.
In our new Doula Safety Net Funding Brief, we outline a liberatory funding model for sustainable doula care that centers community voice and racial equity. Our Founding Executive Director, Kiddada Green, speaks to how delayed diagnosis and systemic racism are costing lives, and how doulas can help save them. Learn more about how we’re advocating for policy change, equitable compensation, and culturally grounded care.
