Outside of midwifery and homebirth, there are many issues women must face. Things like working outside the home, child related issues, raising kids, single moms,political issues and so many things that prevent women from doing what is best for their families.  Alabama is clearly an Anto Family, and anti woman state. The medical establishment has a strangle hold on womens health issues and most of those making the decidions are men. Men making decisions about how women should approach health care, how  and where they birth, how they educate their children and even to the most intimate part of a womans life, they control.  There are many groups in Alabama trying to stop the abuse. They have radical and often liberal ideas of freedom that some people dont want to be a part of.  But true freedom is freedom for everyone..not just a few. 

So search a group out that you can be a part of...support those issues you feel led to fight for and help bring the health care of women back to  the women theselves.

I want to include links that can help you on your own searches to answers you need. Each of us are at different places on the journey and what one woman needs to know is not what another does. The links on this page do no follow a pattern or a theme or a logical path, except that is is information someone needs.

I dont necessairily agree with everything on every website..but find what is needed and the rest is left behind.
