DOULA SUPPORT

In short a doula is a part of a support system and advocate for women and people at various stages of the life course. There are doulas for abortion care, labor, postpartum, and death.

Doulas are a community based role. They are trained and provide care at many different levels of support to individuals and families. Some of these supports are provided via educational, emotional, nutritional and physical methods.

Abortion Doulas: provide informational, emotional, and sometimes physical support prior, during and after an abortion to individuals and families.

Birth Doulas: provides advocacy, education, emotional, physical, and other kinds of support to mothers and birthing people and their families before, during, and after birth.

Death Doulas: provides support to individuals and families during a person’s transition
