Black individuals face real danger in maternal care - advocacy and support matter.

Meet Danielle - a pregnant Black woman concerned about becoming another statistic.

She’s aware of the disparities that exist in maternal care, and she’s thinking about how to protect her experience as she prepares for birth. She wants to feel seen, respected, and supported every step of the way.

For Danielle, a doula can play an important role in helping her voice be heard. Someone who supports informed decision-making, provides continuous, attentive care, and helps create space for her preferences and needs to be recognized.

For the month of April, we’re sharing a series of personas highlighting different people who might benefit from a doula - because every story deserves support.πŸ™ŒπŸ½
