Seal of Perinatal Equity - Application for Perinatal Organizations, Departments, or Programs

-- Step 1 Application -- This application process is meant to help us find and promote access to individuals and organizations who are fully committed to the work of perinatal equity. We have tried to make this application process accessible, but please let us know if there are accommodations that would help make this process easier for you Please note that the application cannot be saved - we encourage you to draft your responses in an external document The criteria that have been chosen to operationalize the goal of equity-centered birthwork and healthcare are not perfect, but are baseline recommendations for being a part of Nurturely's perinatal professional referral network. The Seal of Perinatal Equity is intended to indicate commitment to the work - it is not a certification that is "finished" but rather an indication to fellow providers and patients/clients that you are working toward care that is unbiased, antiracist, and culturally inclusive. If you do not have clear evidence of how you meet each criteria level, we will ask you to resubmit your application when you do have this evidence. Because this is ongoing work rather than a one-time certification, we ask providers to resubmit applications yearly with up-to-date demonstrations of their commitments to this work.
