National Campaign for Midwifery Legislation

The national movement known as  the Big Push for Midwives advocates for the regulation and licensure of Certified Professional Midwives (CPM's), and is pushing back against the efforts of any organization that attempts to deny American families access to legal midwifery care.

WV Friends of Midwives, partnered with the WV Birth Policy Coalition, is helping with this push in West Virginia. We are working with WV legislators to get Certified Professional Midwives licensed and working throughout the state. For more information visit the WV Birth Policy Coalition page.
