Black Mamas Bailout

SBJN is a proud collaborative partner of the South Florida Black Mamas Bailout, a part of a national movement to end pretrial detention and ultimately the abolishment of mass incarceration.

3 out of 4 women are in cages for minor offenses like driving with a suspended license. 80% of incarcerated women are parents.

Birth Worker's In Action

What is a Midwife?

Midwives focus on caring for the whole person, family, and community.
Midwives help pregnant people through labor, check
the health of babies, and care for families in their
homes, at birth centers, or in a hospital.
Midwives listen and respect a pregnant person’s right to make decisions about their own bodies.
Midwives work with doulas, community health workers, obstetricians, pediatricians, and other health care providers, so they can help fill in health care gaps.
Midwives travel to serve throughout their community and are known for their wisdom and healing.
Midwives have been around all throughout history and in every culture across the world.
Midwives continue to pass down traditional birthcustoms from generation to generation.
• Midwives are an important key for improving maternal health and increasing the number of satisfied families who have better birth outcomes.
