INELDA Update – JUNE 2023

INELDA PRIDE MENTORING GROUP UPDATE

INELDA PRIDE MENTORING GROUP UPDATE

If you are a INELDA-trained doula who is a member of the LGBTQIA2S+ community, note that we are moving to four quarterly meetings with our PRIDE community of doulas. The meetings will be centered on a specific topic, but all ideas and thoughts are welcome. The PRIDE group is open and available at no additional cost to current Tier 2 and Tier 3 INELDA-trained members.

Join us for our next quarterly meeting to discuss navigating disclosure in doula work. We will discuss the individual choice doulas make to disclose or not disclose information to their patients and coworkers about their sexual orientation or gender identity. This will be a personal and important discussion among PRIDE group members.

Save the dates for the next three meetings. Topics will be announced in the newsletter and on social media.
