What is Advocacy

Learn all about advocacy and what it means to "advocate for yourself" in your maternity care.  This vital resource is for all pregnant and birthing people and explores what self advocacy is, why it is important and why it can be challenging in maternity care.  It encourages self reflection, strategies to support effective communication with your maternity care provider, how to communicate your preferences and expectations of care and how to navigate challenges that might arise, including having your voice heard in moments when your choices and voice are not being respected.
