Birth is part of the BOLD (Birth On Labor Day) Movement. Every September, Birth is performed in cities around the world, uniting women’s voices calling for change in a maternity-care system that is broken–
For example:
But there is a movement to promote a model of care that is evidence-based and centered on mothers and babies. It’s called “Mother-Friendly” Maternity Care. BirthNetwork NWA promotes this model of care through education, advocacy, and support. Please join with BirthNetwork NWA and BOLD to raise money, raise awareness, and raise the energy of a movement that will empower women take charge of their births and give them options that work.
