The goal of The Birthing Project is to keep more babies of color alive by recruiting, training and supporting community “Sister Friend” volunteers.  They provide direction, emotional support and education to mothers  that continues for one year after the baby is born. During this year, the Sister Friend helps her little sister obtain the parenting and life survival skills, such as finding and using resources (housing, transportation, childcare); identifying and pursuing educational and employment goals; and understanding that she is an important and valued member of the community
