Birth justice is about your rights as a birthing person
Know your rights.
Navigating health care systems that often seem designed against you can be challenging. It's important to know what your rights are and how to communicate them as a birth-giver.
Justice leads to joy.
Putting justice at the centre of your care experience will make the whole process less stressful, more empowering, and ultimately more joyful for you and your baby.
Communicate with clarity.
Knowing how to communicate your with confidence and clarity to your healthcare provider can make all of the difference. It'll be the key to making sure your needs and expectations are met.
