Project snapshot
Ashe Birthing Services, focuses on improving maternal health for Black and Brown families in NYC. Despite high healthcare spending, the U.S. sees poor maternal outcomes, especially among Black women. Our team of doulas provides 24/7 support, combining ancestral wisdom with evidence-based practices to empower families and enhance outcomes. We’re expanding our free childbirth education to a broader program, utilizing social media and partnerships with healthcare providers to increase accessibility. This initiative will strengthen community bonds by supporting families through childbirth and postpartum, promoting a positive start to parenthood. We’ll sustain this project through affiliate marketing and partnerships with hospitals, ensuring long-term support and education for marginalized communities, ultimately setting a standard in maternal health advocacy.
