Ensuring Sustainable Growth for Our Expanding Nonprofit

Our mission is to decrease maternal health inequities by serving the most underserved families. The Community Doula Program was developed in partnership with InterCommunity Health Network Coordinated Care Organization to provide culturally, socially, and linguistically matched doula care to medicaid families in Oregon. The CDP recruits, trains, and connects clients to THW Doulas. CDP Doulas come from the same communities they serve, including Medicaid priority populations (e.g., individuals who are English language learners, racially and ethnically diverse, under-housed, have a history of incarceration or substance use disorder, pregnant or parenting adolescents, medically high-risk, as well as those with low or no social support). We believe in building community solutions to our maternal health crisis in the United States and are dedicated to sharing our experiences with families and communities looking to do the same. A healthy community begins with a healthy birth.
