Did you know that Alabama women/families desiring an out of hospital birth are forced to drive across State borders to Mississippi, Florida and Tennessee? Although legal in 27 states, it is currently illegal for a Midwife to attend a planned out of hospital birth in Alabama. The Alabama Birth Coalition, a grass roots organization working to make a change, has received an offer from an incredible benefactor to MATCH all donations up to $25,000 toward their efforts. These donations will help support efforts in legalization of the CMP (Certified Professional Midwife) to provide out of hospital care and birth services for Alabama families. Please help by making a donation today! All donations do make a difference. Even more valuable is your time, volunteering when letters and phone calls are needed. Please visit www.AlabamaBirthCoalition.org today to join our grass roots effort.
