MODERATOR:
Shelby Kirillin | INELDA Educator
For our May webinar, we will hear from three doula collectives about the ways in which practicing together has shaped their experience of providing deathcare. Join our discussion to learn lessons from these three different models: the statewide Minnesota Death Collaborative, the regional Death Collective North Texas, and the Pacific Birth Collective in Maui that is steeped in a multitude of services and advocacy work.
The guests will discuss how they support in various capacities to practice together, share knowledge with each other, and advocate for the work they do. Doula collectives can take various forms, with the foundation of them being that working together can provide various benefits to both doulas and the people they support.
This webinar will be moderated by INELDA educator Shelby Kirillin.

ABOUT THIS CLASS: Pathways to Practice is a six-week cohort-style led course to help empower you with the skills to build your unique doula practice and model of care. We have intentionally shifted away from the language of “business development” because the spectrum of doula care is vast and incorporates many ways to provide service beyond just the traditional business model. We will take learners through a discovery process of envisioning how they want to be a doula and be compensated for their care. We will guide you through trusted strategies for building a “plan for practice” that will help establish your vision for care, your definition of doula care, your impact, and the financial resources needed to sustain your practice. Lastly, participants will hear from a variety of practicing end-of-life doulas as they share their models for inspiration of paths already carved.

ABOUT THIS CLASS: Pathways to Practice is a six-week cohort-style led course to help empower you with the skills to build your unique doula practice and model of care. We have intentionally shifted away from the language of “business development” because the spectrum of doula care is vast and incorporates many ways to provide service beyond just the traditional business model. We will take learners through a discovery process of envisioning how they want to be a doula and be compensated for their care. We will guide you through trusted strategies for building a “plan for practice” that will help establish your vision for care, your definition of doula care, your impact, and the financial resources needed to sustain your practice. Lastly, participants will hear from a variety of practicing end-of-life doulas as they share their models for inspiration of paths already carved.
