Today, we pause to recognize and honor the legacy, resilience, and living presence of Indigenous Peoples—those who were, and continue to be, stewards of this land long before us.
At Central Texas Midwifery, our commitment to birth, family, and community care is deeply tied to respect for the land, its first peoples, and their enduring wisdom. Today, we:
Recognize that supporting Indigenous health and sovereignty is part of the work toward reproductive justice and equity.
Commit to listening, learning, and partnering in ways that uplift Indigenous voices, leadership, and autonomy.
We invite you to join us in reflection, gratitude, and action. Whether it’s learning more about local Indigenous communities, supporting Indigenous-led initiatives, or simply holding space for their stories to be heard, every step matters.
