SOMEBODY PINCH US. 😭 KAMALA HARRIS JUST MENTIONED BIRTH DETROIT ON KEKE PALMER’S PODCAST!

“I was at this place in Detroit. It’s the Detroit birth center… what they’re doing is a model of the idea that we need to have community-based facilities as birthing centers for women… So they can be in their own community, being treated in a community that understands and respects them and gives them the dignity they deserve.”

THIS is the heart of Birth Detroit. Care rooted in community. Care that sees you, respects you, and honors your dignity. This is what happens when a community believes in a different future for birth and builds it together.

Keke Palmer, consider this your official invitation! Come visit Birth Detroit and experience the love for yourself. 💙

From the families we’ve served to the impact we’re making across Detroit, there’s so much to celebrate and so much more ahead.

Every story, milestone, and moment of growth is made possible by this community. We invite you to take a look at what we’ve been building together!

This Indigenous Peoples Day, we honor the Indigenous communities whose traditions, wisdom, and love have cared for families for generations.

Thank you to the National Council of Indigenous Midwives - NCIM for uplifting Indigenous midwives and reminding us that Indigenous midwifery is resilient. While their work centers Indigenous communities in Canada, this message resonates across borders. Indigenous midwives everywhere deserve to be celebrated, supported, and empowered to care for their communities.

Birth Detroit also honors the Indigenous peoples, including the Anishinaabe peoples of the Three Fires Confederacy, whose ancestral land our birth center stands on. We recognize the generations who have cared for this land and honor their enduring connection to it.
