Purpose By Design

The purpose of Cultivated Care for Perinatal Wellness is to cultivate no-cost programs, services, and learning opportunities for people along their perinatal journey, as well as perinatal professionals. Each opportunity is meant to be a source of physical, emotional, and mental care, with the ultimate goal of shifting the narrative of maternal and infant mortality to vitality. 

Cultivated Care for Perinatal Wellness

Shifting the Narrative

  • Everyone deserves a safe and supported perinatal experience. This is why the work of Cultivated Care for Perinatal Wellness will always be centered on reducing pregnancy related risks amongst the most vulnerable citizens through communal education and intentional support.

    We accomplish this through community engagement, adult-only events, communal perinatal education for families, continuing education for birth professionals, connection to resources, and more.
