Holiday Greetings from PTBi

While the holiday season is a busy time, we are looking forward to slowing down to rest and regenerate the strength we’ll need after the celebrations.

For us, that means gathering with those dearest in our lives and making time for activities that center us: cooking, playing, dancing, spending time outdoors, hanging with friends, volunteering, and everything that nourishes our resilience and determination to continue the critical work ahead.

We hope you find inspiration, joy, and connectedness this holiday season, along with your place of power and peace.

Doula Access Town Hall

Hosted by the Community Advisory Board of the Santa Clara County Black Infant Health Program and Perinatal Equity Initiative, this installment of the doula access town hall series will highlight the voices and expertise of integral partners in ensuring access to the new Medi-Cal doula benefit for families of African Ancestry, who are at disproportionately high risk for negative birth outcomes due to the impact of structural racism and systemic inequities.
