JustBirth Space offers free virtual perinatal support to individuals worldwide over the course of pregnancy, labor and birth, postpartum, and beyond. We are committed to providing a free, virtual space during pregnancy, labor and birth, and postpartum, lactation and infant feeding support. Our services are rooted in reproductive justice and aim to center the experiences of BIPOC individuals, affirm LGBTQIA2+ communities, and support all women, birthing people, and families on their journeys. 

JustBirth Space specialists are available for support and respond to your messages between 8am and 10pm EST. Depending on how many people we are supporting, it may take us time to get back to you, but we hope to connect with you as quickly as possible.
