What the charity exists to do
Our mission is to improve pregnancy, birth and parenting outcomes and experiences for those most impacted by systemic inequities. We work with families who are seeking asylum and those with insecure immigration status, as well as other underserved groups who face barriers to accessing maternity care and associated support. Our strategic aims are: 1. To support self-agency during pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. 2. To improve wellbeing and build community for new parents and their children. 3. To influence and address maternal health disparities at a local and national level.
