We started out on a mission to support safer birth options in Ohio.
Through the efforts of people like you, we will be able to continue making laws that ensure the safety of moms and babies remain a priority.
Explore our resources below to learn more about the history and mission of the Buckeye Birth Coalition, where we are currently aiming our efforts, meet our Board of Directors, and explore our blog for more information on the benefits of midwifery care.
WHEN ANCIENT ROOTS MEETS MODERN MEDICINE
Bringing ancestral values back into perinatal and infant care.
Midwifery is one of the world’s oldest professions. Midwives in ancient cultures were deeply respected community healers that brought in experience, wisdom, and intuition to their work.
We have evidence that this model of care still holds true for modern times. When mothers feel supported physically, emotionally, culturally, and spiritually, they have better birth outcomes.

“All women should be allowed the right to make choices for their pregnancy and births, and should be thought of as the main care provider for their baby’s pregnancy and birth. This basic right is at the crux of the Midwives Model of Care.”
