About the event

What is "scope of practice"? Why is this term thrown around so often in the birthwork community and why does it seem like many people have varied opinions on it? Is this harmful or helpful for my practice? Why is scope such a hot topic for our community? 

This month we'll be exploring the realms of Scope of Practice in the birthwork world! Not sure what it is? No problem! This is the perfect place for you to find out and learn more about it. I'm excited to have this conversation with you folks and see where y'all stand in terms of scope in the doula's role. Don't know where you stand yet? Perhaps joining in this conversation may just help shape your view!

Across the ocean, the land I call home is called Surigao del Sur. Through migration, my father first settled in Scarborough, the ancestral lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples. In 2003, my mother and I joined him and migrated to settle on Turtle Island.

Today, I am settled and operating in Guelph, Ontario, and acknowledge that this is the ancestral lands of the Attawandaron/Chonnonton, the Anishinaabe, and Haudenosaunee peoples and the treaty lands and territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit. I recognize the significance of the Dish with One Spoon Covenant to this land and offer our respect and gratitude to all of the Indigenous peoples of Turtle Island who have stewarded, loved & defended this land for centuries.
