How Doulas Can Help Pregnant Disabled People [CC] [ASL]

Disabled pregnant people often encounter barriers in healthcare throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. This webinar examines the experiences of disabled people during pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postpartum, and explores how doulas can help reduce barriers to care. Participants learned about disability-centered doula support, the importance of advocacy and accommodations, and ways doulas can contribute to more accessible and equitable birth experiences.
