About Us

Why Birthworkers of Color Collective?

This collective was formed in response to the birth and health disparities that people of color face during pregnancy, the lack of representation, and the appropriation of traditions around pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
 
Our vision is to remain in a state of informed engagement, leading to practices that create space for our people to make the reproductive choices that are best for them. 
Featured facilitator
“This collective reclaims our medicine, shares our knowledge with the community, and heals. Together, we are bringing unique skills, resources, and experiences to our work as birthworkers, healers and people of color.”

Stevie Merino

Founder and Executive Director

Our students love us

After taking the training the thing that inspired me most was getting to talk to other people who are doing this work. Seeing how they support each other and hearing about experiences they've had really inspired me.
This course is absolutely worth the time, money, and energy investment if you share a goal of making abortion safer and more accessible for all and want to envision what a forward-thinking and inclusive doula practice could look like for you.
Honestly, I feel the training really fit the way I like to learn and I was able to soak in the information while also feeling inspired to speak up and ask any questions I had. I wouldn't change anything.
