Make Alabama History.

Unfortunately, if you are having a baby in the state of Alabama there are ZERO freestanding birth center options available. Midwifery care during pregnancy, labor, and birth, whether at home or at a free-standing birth center - is truly superior care owing to midwives 1:1 patient-centered approach among many other things.

Funds raised to support the Birth Sanctuary Gainesville will go directly to the building/outfitting of the physical structure, as well as for the construction of comprehensive prenatal education programming.  Any remaining funds will be used to directly finance Midwifery care for those who would otherwise be unable to utilize these critical services.

While we wait for large medical-industrial birth spaces to eliminate racial bias, make purposeful inclusion of gender-affirming care, become respectful of religious and personal freedom, and begin to follow the best evidence for low-risk labor and birth as the standard of care - Families and individuals can receive comprehensive care at Birth Sanctuary Gainesville, being certain that their specific needs will not be overlooked.
