Reimagining Full Spectrum Doula Services

So honored and grateful for the opportunity to serve not only the mission of Madison Area Donor Milk Alliance, but also the greater Madison Northside community as an accessible bridge for resources!

A warm welcome to our newest board member and new Vice President, Chandra Lewis

Chandra is a passionate advocate for maternal and infant health equity. As a full-spectrum doula and childbirth educator, Chandra's journey in birth work is deeply personal and profoundly impactful. In 2009, Chandra experienced the devastating loss of her stillborn daughter, Adonijah Janai, navigating grief and self-blame in the face of medical and postpartum uncertainty.

Joining MADMA in 2024 to open the Harambee host freezer site on Madison's Northside, Chandra believes community access to give and receive human milk is a right. As the Director of Doula Programming at Harambee Birth and Family Center, Chandra spearheads community-based doula initiatives and advocates for inclusive reproductive care.

Beyond that professional role, Chandra amplifies marginalized voices through grassroots advocacy and public speaking, aiming to dismantle systemic healthcare barriers.

We are thrilled to have Chandra as part of the team!
