PROGRAM MANAGER SPOTLIGHT

This month, we're celebrating Bridgette Jerger, Director of the G.R.O.W. Doula Program!

For more than 11 years, Bridgette has been dedicated to supporting mothers, babies, and families through compassionate care, advocacy, and education. As a certified doula and lactation counselor, she is passionate about helping families feel informed, empowered, and supported throughout their journey.

Bridgette has played an instrumental role in expanding access to doula services and strengthening support for families across our community. Her commitment to maternal and child health continues to make a lasting impact every day. ✨

Fun facts: Her favorite color is purple, she loves seafood, and her ideal vacation destination is anywhere that requires a plane or boat to get there!
