Introducing Our Photo Match Program!

We're so excited about a new partnership with photographer Seze Devres! We're committed to supporting positive birth experiences for all people, and documenting the first days and weeks of their child's life is a big priority for many new parents. However, many families are unable to afford the costs of a professional photographer. Through our new Photo Match Program, we're offering an opportunity for mothers to support mothers.

For more information, check out our Photo Match form here.

Dear friends and supporters, We are so thrilled to announce the pre-sale campaign for our new Zine, DIY Doula: Self-Care Before, During, & After Your Abortion .

Volunteer with Us! Now Accepting Applications for Spring 2017

We are recruiting volunteer full-spectrum doulas to become part of the Doula Project! People who are passionate, caring, and committed are encouraged to apply.

Many of our best doulas have had no professional experience, but a dedicated attitude and a desire to learn more and be a part of the Doula Project.

The mandatory training for new volunteers will be on April 21 (5:30-9 pm), April 22 (9-5 pm), and April 23 (9-5 pm). Applicat
