June 4, ’11 – Area Birth Conference

Birth Matters
…it matters to families;
…it matters to health care providers;
…and it matters to taxpayers.
We all want babies & mothers to get the best care possible, without wasteful spending.
The families of SD Safe Childbirth Options invite you to join us as we celebrate the contributions of modern midwives and
explore ways to reduce maternity care spending while improving the quality of care. Our speakers include Marilyn Hildreth, an obstetrics nurse for over 30 years who travels the world giving workshops on improving maternity care, and Niki Johnson, a local doula aspiring to become a midwife.
