Join us for a 2 hour workshop unpacking maternal health, the birthing process, and more.
About this Event

Join us for this 2-hour virtual Dads to Doulas workshop as we unpack how fathers and partners experience the birthing process. Together we’ll explore strategies for healing, supporting loved ones, and advocating in the moment and beyond.

Dads to Doulas aims to equip black men and expectant fathers with the knowledge and skills to advocate for their families from pregnancy through infancy. By providing doula-level education, we strive to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates.

Black women are up to 3 times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes compared to white women. The mortality rate for Black infants is nearly twice that of white infants in our region. The core of the program is building a community and safe space for men/fathers for real time learning opportunities that will increase the understanding of how and why systemic racism affects unborn Black children. Dads to Doulas serves as a hub for the healing and empowerment for families, equipping them with tools and resources with the intention to increase the likelihood of infant survival.
