Established in 2018 after a traumatic birth experience, Birth Your Way (fiscally sponsored by New Sun Rising) is a perinatal health community resource that offers doula services, birth education classes, collaborations with local organizations, and doula training and mentorship cohorts that have successfully trained 16 birth workers. Birth Your Way’s mission is to fortify the Pittsburgh birth professional workforce by providing intensive training, certification, and mentorship. Their ultimate goal is to guarantee that only competent, knowledgeable, and highly skilled doulas are accessible to collaborate with hospital providers and support birthing families.
