This event was hosted by The Family Preservation Project.

For Disabled people, the psychiatric system and the family regulation system are deeply entangled. A diagnosis, medication, or moment of crisis can become the doorway to family policing.

Join this FREE virtual training designed for doulas and birthworkers to explore how these two systems intersect, particularly for parents with intellectual/developmental disabilities and psychiatric disabilities.

Participants will learn practical, autonomy-centered strategies to support and advocate for Disabled parents and pregnant individuals during pregnancy, birth, and parenthood, while helping keep families together.
