CAPPA

So, people ask me what I love about CAPPA.  I have been affiliated with this amazing organization for more than 10 years now and am currently a faculty member teaching labor doula workshops and the Assistant to the Director of Labor Doula programs.  But the bottom line - other than the wonderful sisterhood that exists, this is what gets me every time.

The CAPPA Vision
Imagine a world where women are encouraged to trust their bodies, and where myths about childbirth and breastfeeding are dispelled. Imagine a world where women are given the tools they need to make informed decisions about their pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and postpartum experiences. Imagine a world where education does not involve guilt but seeks to empower. Imagine a world where women are surrounded by caring, compassionate support throughout the childbearing year. Imagine a world where new mothers are equipped to embrace pregnancy, birth, and motherhood with confidence. Imagine an organization that volunteers every day to make this a reality. CAPPA - reality begins with imagination.
