Momma's Village-Fayetteville is an organization that started out with a vision to provide education, support, and advocacy for Black and brown breastfeeding families in our community. The past several months have been very challenging between COVID19 and our advocacy work for racial equity for Black and brown families. But during this time our President/CEO, Angela Tatum Malloy, MAT, IBCLC, CHW, Doula, participated on the North Carolina Pregnancy & Continuity of Care During COVID19 Task Force which released a best-practices statement for the care of families in our community. We will also be resuming our breastfeeding classes, support group meetings and educational workshops with virtual options to keep our families safe. We are about to facilitate our second Community-based Doula Training of 15 future birthworkers that will help to increase representation of Black doulas in our community so that Black families are able to be supported, empowered, and educated in the outcomes of their own births. It will also provide a career pathway for our community birthworkers and for those who have a vested interest in providing equitable care to our families before, during, and after birth. Our Vision is to help reduce health disparities for babies and their families by empowering these families with an awareness in health through preconception, pregnancy, postpartum, breastfeeding, and beyond. We believe that this can be done by preserving the basic human right to health regardless of ethnicity, citizenship status, or socioeconomic status. We also believe that the greatest strength to support our community will come from our community. With your purchase and donation, you will help us to provide birth support to families so they can have the help to navigate through these challenging times while pregnant. This includes being able to offer reduced or FREE labor support while making sure our doulas are compensated for their work. This will also help support the additional training for our birthworkers as they become trained Community Healthworker to expand the postpartum support we provide through Momma's Village Doula Collective. Our mission is to empower, support, and educate the families in our community…..one birth at a time.
