“Maternity care is everybody's business: acknowledging the deep need for improvement and making sure that people have something concrete and specific based on where they are and their own journey as a consumer of maternity care.” —Jill Wodnick

“Doulas really make a difference. I do not want to put healing a broken maternity care system on the back and on the burden of doulas who are peer support.

It is not doulas who are doing too much too soon or too little too late in terms of assessment, diagnostic, and how maternity care is delivered.

Doulas have had to bear witness to watching obstetrical violence, to watching disrespect, to watching racism impact maternity care.

As a doula champion, when a hospital system wants doulas, I also want to see, are they supporting a culture of physiologic birth?” - Jill Wodnick
