Before this body of work, the term ‘transplant doula’ didn’t exist. Now, people from across the world are coming together to create an ever-changing resource for an entirely new model of doula care that supports organ failure patients, organ transplant patients, living organ donors, the families of deceased organ donors, caregivers, and healthcare professionals
A new model of doula care that bridges the gaps along the organ failure, organ transplant, and organ donation care continuums.
Deepen your understanding of transplant doula work, find your people, and get ongoing support.
Foundational Courses
Your doula practice will be shaped by your lived experience, community, values, culture, and more. That said, we’ve created foundational courses to help you develop your core skills and understanding of what it means to show up in service for those navigating these medical events.
Community Focused
We know two things to be true: doula work is easier to carry when you have a community you can rely on, and the biggest growth happens through wisdom sharing of lived experiences. So our network prioritizes connection, resource exchanges, and regular human-first check-ins.
Trauma-Informed Guidance
The truth is that this work doesn’t happen within the clean lines of the healthcare system. There can be real trauma and real harm not only in the experience of organ failure, transplant, and donation itself—but in how we participate in the narratives that are pushed by larger organizations. A doula is not here to be a comforting presence, or to try to make something completely uncertain—predictable. We are here to witness and honor the sovereignty of the person we support.
