EMBRACE-ing Childbirth: A Premiere

​An evening of community, celebration, and a first look at the EMBRACE Childbirth Education Video Series.

​Created for Black birthing families, this four-part series brings midwives, doulas, and real families into honest conversation about pregnancy, labor and birth, postpartum recovery, and newborn care. Body changes and birth plans. The Golden Hour and the fourth trimester.

​You'll be among the first to see it. Then we'll sit down with the midwives and creators who made it for a fireside conversation about what it took and what comes next.

​This is more than a screening. It's a gathering of the village.
