Description

Doulas are non-medical professionals who provide physical, emotional, and informational support to individuals/families during pregnancy, at birth, and in the post-pregnancy period. Research supports that Doula services have high impact in positive outcomes for individuals of low-income and individuals of color specifically. As of August, 2021 Rhode Island’s doula Reimbursement Legislation came to pass which now allows for medical insurance reimbursement of doula services. This new advancement will support many families in need, but services are still necessary to address the inequity of support between now and when the reimbursement model is operational.
