EVENTS!
GALS is hosting a virtual 5k!
From December 10-13, we are excited to come together, have some fun, and raise some money for GALS! The PUSH IT 5k is a spin on pushing out babies... so for this virtual 5k you don't have to run- grab your family/friends and let's run, walk, dance, skate, act out your birth... or whatever creative moving you want to do.
We invite our community of birthworkers, birthing people, healthcare staff, family, supporters- anyone who is interested in improving birth outcomes in Central Texas and beyond to support and participate in this event.
Once you've signed up you will be invited to create a personal fundraising page. Get the word out and let's PUSH IT together!

The Truth in Numbers: BIPOC Birthing During Covid-19, on October 22, 4:30-5:30pm
In March, Mama Sana Vibrant Woman, Black Mamas ATX, Giving Austin Labor Support and Healing Hands Community Doula Project formed The Maternal Health Equity Collaborative. This partnership is dedicated to making Austin a more equitable city for birthing people.
In collaboration with MEASURE, we conducted a community survey to assess the unique needs of pregnant people during COVID-19. Now it’s time for us to share the data!
