Postpartum Doula Equity Program
At Tandem, we serve all regardless of ability to pay.
Having robust postpartum support is a necessity, not a luxury. Many new families are isolated from support networks. A postpartum doula can help bridge this gap. With their unique training, they are able to allow new parents to focus on bonding with their new baby and healing physically while feeling supported with household logistics and emotional support.
Thanks to our 2023 Persisterhood Workshop Grant, we were able to provide 125.5 hours of free and reduced cost postpartum doula services in our community using a sliding scale fee program and we expect to more than double this amount in 2024.
In 2024, the 100+ Women Who Care funded our services, allowing provide over 500 hours of support to 13 families in our community.
