Fill this out, it doesn't have to be perfect and try not to overthink! We want to hear from you and welcome your perspective! We will respond to all applications.
Dare to Birth is all about providing nonjudgmental education to families.

Our main values are:

1. Access Centered - always attempting to be more accessible and inclusive
2. Intersectionality - meeting people at the intersections of all of their identities
3. Community and Mutual Aid - volunteering time and/or funds to our community
4. Radical honesty, transparency, and compassion

We are also focused on promoting birth/reproductive justice, and autonomy for all people, we are pro-choice, anti racist, and queer affirming.

We understand that everyone is always learning and growing and we support ourselves and our educators in that journey but our core values should align with you.
