Cost shouldn't be a barrier to high-quality, culturally centered doula training. As a commitment to access and equity this is our offering.
​
In honor of World Doula Week, and with deep gratitude for the support that made this possible, we are thrilled to be able to offer a full-tuition scholarship to one Black identifying birth worker who is ready to step into this calling and serve their community. This is not a hand-out, this is a commitment to black birth work, black generational healing, & black joy.
