Full-Spectrum Doula Needs Survey

7/18/2016

0 Comments

 
Thank you to everyone who invested the energy to complete the Full-Spectrum Doula Needs Survey! I’m going to be using the results to help plan abortion support courses and other programs, so the input is very valuable.

So far 90% of people who've taken the survey want abortion doula training and only 40% are looking for birth doula training. That makes sense since there are many more ways to get trained as a birth doula than as an abortion doula.

Here's one of many survey responses (shared with permission) letting me know I'm on the right track with this initiative:

"I really want to do a training and be able to continue training. There are few resources to do this; please, please, please, help with adding more of those resources! I am ready and willing to become a doula, all I need is more trainings!" -Alexandria Colbert

    ​Full-Spectrum Doula Circle

    Doulas traditionally provide
    ​
    non-medical, empowering support for birth. Full-spectrum doulas provide the same kind of support for the
    full spectrum of pregnancy outcomes, including abortion.


    We do this to create a culture of compassion, love, and justice in which all people have the freedom and resources they need to make free choices about their bodies and their families.

    Full-Spectrum Doula Circle connects abortion/full-spectrum doulas and other reproductive support people
    with information, education, and each other, to increase skills, decrease burnout, and deepen our wells of support,
    with an emphasis on providing digital resources to connect doulas who are geographically dispersed.
