Lactation Counseling After attending Seattle Midwifery School to become a birth worker in 2004, I began using my education, cultural knowledge, and personal experience to help people in my community have better birthing experiences. I *loved* giving birth, and so accompanying

families on this sacred journey is such an honor for me. I proudly serve on the board of Surge Reproductive Justice, am an active member of the Doulas for All Coalition -bringing Medicaid reimbursements for doula services to Washington State, and chair the Birth Equity Committee for The Washington State Department of Health. Slowly working towards a Masters in Maternal-Child Health to improve policies for better perinatal health outcomes. When I'm not attending or thinking about births, I enjoy spending time with my family, hiking, canoeing, participating in cultural events, knitting like a little old lady, reading, yoga, and probably all of the other Seattle clichés.

We are honored and excited to share the Indigenous Perinatal Preference Guides, created by lived experts—mothers, aunties, Birthworkers, and nurses! These guides empower Indigenous birthing patients to communicate their preferences, goals, and support systems in a way that is informed, safe, and culturally rooted.

Providers, we encourage you to share these guides with your Indigenous patients to foster respectful, collaborative care that honors tradition and strengthens connections.

In our ongoing commitment to support the mental health and well-being of our Relatives, we'd like to address an important topic that affects many of us: political stress and its impact on our emotional health.

Political Stress, sometimes referred to as Political Trauma, is a common experience that can arise from exposure to politically charged events, actions, or rhetoric. As Indigenous peoples, we may be particularly attuned to these stressors due to our unique historical and cultural experiences. Check out the flyer below to understand more about Political Trauma and tips for how to cope with it.

Critical clinical guidance should never be out of reach. ACOG is ensuring that members can access recently removed federal guidance by hosting key CDC resources on our website. Transparency and access to comprehensive guidance are fundamental to our collective success. https://bit.ly/3CDueW4
