How we work
We identify as a Worker Self-Directed Nonprofit! We practice Horizontal Governance and have 11 Circles (working groups/committees) that are made up of Organizational staff, birth companions, board, contractors, volunteers and community partners. Our reason for this change is our commitment to facilitating a space for community transparency and input.
In place of an Executive Director, we have Circle Coordinators! If you need to get in touch with a particular circle, please see current coordinators contact information below
“So what's a worker self-directed nonprofit? We are defining this as a nonprofit organization in which all workers have the power to influence the programs in which they work, the conditions of their workplace, their own career paths, and the direction of the organization as a whole.”
