✨ SB 692 = builds doula capacity + expands services
✨ SB 1167 = fair pay for doulas serving Medicaid members. Momnibus is a game-changing step toward birth equity.

📣 Use your voice:
✔️ Share your story
✔️ Email legislative leaders
✔️ Demand full funding for SB 692 + SB 1167

Too many birthing people are navigating a system that prioritizes profit and protocol over people.

Unnecessary C-sections. Lack of support. Unaddressed trauma. Discrimination.

But there’s a proven, powerful solution: doula care.

Doulas reduce medical interventions, improve mental health outcomes, connect families to critical services, and advocate for the respect and dignity every parent deserves.
