From the article: "The state didn't systematically track data on pregnant incarcerated women until the Minnesota Prison Doula Project began in 2010, providing free birth coaches to inmates."

I am pro abortion.
There is nothing shameful or bad or wrong about the procedure, whether medical, surgical or induction.
If it is needed, it is needed.

[Keren Landman @landmanspeaking]

In healthcare settings, LGBTQ folks often hesitate to self-advocate, perhaps out of fear they'll make themselves a target for even more discrimination.

That's why doulas can be such a big help when queer parents give birth. My first for @XtraMagazine: https://t.co/xei7gB9d7m

[FullSpectDoulaCircle @FSDCircle]

"Although often seen as an expensive luxury mostly reserved for white, rich, cisgender, and heterosexual women, doulas are crucial to increasing positive health outcomes for everyone giving birth, regardless of income level or identity."

“Something needs to change, not only here but in other Indigenous communities. And I think that’s why … you see this big resurgence with Indigenous reproductive justice work and Indigenous birth work.”

"More and more people are choosing to die in their homes instead of in hospitals. The New England Journal of Medicine reports the number is the highest it's been since the early 1900s. So families are turning to trained caregivers for support."
