Building Perinatal Support Professionals (BPSP)

The Building Perinatal Support Professionals Project (BPSP) supports low-income scholars in pursuing a perinatal support professional career pathway and helping fight birthing disparity in Georgia’s most vulnerable communities. 

The BPSP project provides scholarship and support for those seeking credentialing as Certified Doulas, Childbirth Educators, and Certified Breastfeeding Specialists. We match each participant with an experienced mentor and provide additional training beyond the necessary credentialing workshops to develop opportunities for economic self-sufficiency. All participants will also undergo trainings related to birthing justice, implicit bias, and how to support all birthing people.

The BPSP Interest Form is closed. Please stay tuned for program updates!
