What are the benefits of offering postpartum doula training to people experiencing incarceration?
In this episode of Birth, Death, and Doulas, host Anne Kathryn Rice is joined by Alex White (Hour Children), Nubia Earth-Martin (Birth from the Earth), and Jen Chandlee (Luminous Postpartum Doula Training).
Together, they discuss the postpartum doula training program for women experiencing incarceration run by Hour Children in partnership with Global Doula Project.
The program allows these moms to receive postpartum care from people who understand the experience of incarceration, and an emphasis on re-entry work – connecting them with resources for when they are no longer part of the program – sets them up for future success.
Those who go through the postpartum doula training receive certification that allows them to continue to practice after release if desired.
Alex, Nubia, and Jen share how the program has enormously benefitted moms and babies, as well as being a powerful experience for the trainers themselves.
