Improving Maternal Health Outcomes

Here for Doulas.
Here for Missouri.

The Missouri Doula Association is working to advance the health of the maternal and infant dyad by empowering, uniting, and supporting doulas and perinatal professionals across Missouri.

Missouri has many resource deserts, especially when it comes to maternal health. All mothers deserve a safe, supported birth, and we are partnering with doulas from around the state to build the maternal health workforce.

About MDA

The Missouri Doula Association is a statewide network of doulas and birth professionals dedicated to improving maternal health across Missouri. From rural communities to urban centers, we see the challenges families face—and we are committed to making a difference together.

We serve as a central hub for connection, collaboration, and shared resources, empowering doulas to strengthen their impact and expand access to care. Our work focuses on improving coordination across healthcare, public health, and community-based services—reducing barriers and strengthening closed-loop referrals. Together, we are building a more connected system of care where every Missouri family can thrive.
