Children of the Sun Doula Project Reducing the rates of infant mortality and morbidity in the African American community

Sister-Friends are community volunteers willing to provide social support to a pregnant woman, walking side by side with her and encouraging her to make good choices for herself during pregnancy, and during her baby's first year. Social support is the one thing proven to reduce the risk of poor birth outcomes which currently stand at 2-3 times higher risk than non-black babies regardless of the mother's socio-economic background.

As we transition into autumn, we are reminded of the beauty that this season brings—the vibrant colors, the cooler air, and the invitation nature offers us to let go of what no longer serves us. Just as the trees shed their leaves in preparation for new growth, we too are called to release what we...

The National Health Law Program's Doula Medicaid Project wants to hear from all doulas in California! Join us in building collective power through research by taking the California Doula Workforce Survey.

If you are a doula or birthworker in California we want to hear from you! This survey will help us create a snapshot of what the doula workforce is like in California. Knowing this information can help policymakers, state and local agencies, and advocates know where the doula workforce needs more support and resources.

This survey is for any doula or birthworker in California. We want to hear from private doulas, volunteer doulas, Medi-Cal provider doulas, doulas with on-the-job experience and doulas with training from an organization, and anyone who identifies as a doula or birthworker. You can opt-in to a raffle for a $200 gift card at the end of the survey.

This survey should take about 15 minutes to complete. Survey responses are anonymous. NHeLP staff will have access to your name and email address only for purposes of the gift card raffle and/or to add you to our listserv at your request. This survey will close March 31, 2024.
