Chicago Volunteer Doulas

Chicago Volunteer Doulas Our clients come from families who could not otherwise afford a doula. Many receive their health care at neighborhood clinics.

CVDoulas provides access to free and low-cost labor, postpartum, and pregnancy loss support. 📧[email protected] for doula service inquiries, rather than dm🤎 They range in age from teenagers to women in their 40’s. Most are Hispanic or African America, speaking English and/or Spanish. Most have family members who will be present at the birth. Their experience and knowledge about labor and delivery varies greatly: Some attend the childbirth classes at clinic or the hospital regularly, others come sporadically and others not at all. Some are single moms and others are married. What they all share is the wish to have someone knowledgeable about childbirth support them through their labor, and to have a healthy, happy baby.

🍎 BIRTHWORKERS NEED RESOURCES TOO! 🤎

Birthworkers spend so much time caring for our communities, but who is making sure they’re cared for?

Access to food is a basic human right. Whether you’re a doula, midwife, or community care worker, you deserve support too.

Here are 3 Chicago food resources worth knowing about:

🥬 Greater Chicago Food Depository
Find free groceries and food pantries throughout Chicago and Cook County.
🌐 chicagosfoodbank.org

🍎 Nourishing Hope Online Market
Access free, nutritious groceries through Nourishing Hope’s food programs.
🌐 nourishinghopechi.org

🤎 Brave Space Alliance
A Black and trans led organization supporting LGBTQ+ communities through mutual aid and food access initiatives.
🌐 bravespacealliance.org

Community care means making sure the people doing the caring have what they need to survive and thrive.

Save this post and share it with a Chicago birthworker who could use these resources! ✊🏾

The right to have children.
