Our vision & goalsWe are beginning to gather funding and write grants for this program! We think that with 2 weeks of dedicated postpartum doula support will make appreciable changes in families for the first year of life. We are going to select a diverse group of families to serve and a similar group of controls to follow for 12 months. The families we serve will receive 2 weeks of postpartum doula support 3 times per week, as well as education and connection to resources.

who we areWe are the team at Doula My Soul, llc! The postpartum doulas serving the families will be selected from a pool of trained postpartum doulas in our community who have volunteered to be a part of their program. They will be paid at market rates from the grant funding. The funding will also cover the researchers' time and other administrative costs of performing data analysis.
We believe this will change the way our community support structure is built, and can't wait to start! |
