Based in Miami Beach, Florida, the Southern Birth Justice Network's (SBJN) "vision is to make [midwifery] care accessible to all peoples–especially Black, Brown, youth, immigrant, indigenous, LGBTQ+, low- income and other marginalized communities." They do this "by using storytelling, popular education, and community organizing to improve access to midwifery and doula care" (SBJN, n.d.).
