This event is brought to you by Frontline Doulas, the LA County Medi-Cal Doula Hub and FLD Community Doula Champions.
The Los Angeles County Medi-Cal Doula Hub’s ultimate vision is to contribute to healthy perinatal experiences by supporting an empowered doula workforce that prioritizes birthing families most at risk of adverse birth outcomes and to advance birth justice for families that reside in the culturally diverse communities of LA County.
The Community Doula Champions Program is committed to supporting community doulas in the process of becoming approved Medi-Cal providers. It is vital that California increases access to community doulas for families that otherwise could not afford one. We welcome you to learn more about your choices in becoming a Medi-Cal approved doula provider and become a part of this historical Medi-Cal benefit.
