Support During Pregnancy - Equity Team

Doulas provide culturally appropriate emotional, physical, and advocacy support during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. They help connect women to resources, reduce stress, and support self-advocacy within healthcare systems.

Research shows that indigenous doulas strengthen cultural connection by integrating traditions, language, and community knowledge into care. This support helps reduce fear, and improves trust, while empowering mothers to have a more positive birth experience.

Indigenous doulas play a key role in addressing gaps in care caused by systemic inequities and improving maternal outcomes through culturally grounded support.

For more information about our Indigenous Doula Services please call (559)320-0490.

Experience one of Lao’s cultural festivals the evening before this year’s boat race- Equity Team

Join Vatthanatham Lao Foundation for bright and colorful lights to celebrate "Boun Lai Heua Fai."

☆ Boun Lai Heua Fai is a vibrant Lao cultural festival that takes place at the end of the rainy season (usually in October. Communities come together to create small handmade boats decorated with candles, flowers, and natural materials, which are floated down rivers as a symbol of letting go of negativity and welcoming good fortune. Larger boats, often illuminated in the shape of mythical nagas, light up the night, turning the water into a glowing celebration of art, tradition, and community spirit. 🌊✨

Urge senators and representative to cosponsor the Protecting Sensitive Locations Act (S. 455/H.R. 1061) to speak out and protect our spaces of care and connection. -Equity Team

“Our hearts and our solidarity are with Leonel Armando Bolivar Linar, his family, and his community. Illegally kidnapping people off our streets never makes us safer. It creates fear, separates families, harms communities, and makes schools less welcoming.

The antidote to fear is solidarity. NEA and our local affiliates are working to support Leonel and his family during this time of crisis. You can speak out to demand schools and other places of care are safe: https://bit.ly/4bAldLF “-Source: NEA Today neatoday

Happy Farmworker Appreciation Day! 👨🏽‍🌾👩🏽‍🌾♥️ Today we honor the farmworkers who feed us and the best way to grow that gratitude is to pass it on to the next generation. That’s where our heroic teachers come in. 👩🏽‍🏫👨🏻‍🏫

We know most schools aren’t back yet, so consider this your early heads-up: when you return, bring farmworker appreciation into your classroom. Teach one short lesson, film a little of it (students’ faces out of frame), and submit - the first 10 California classrooms to enter win a DoorDash ice cream party. A cool treat for your students, and a nod to the extreme heat farmworkers push through every day. ☀️🥵

Teachers, you’re the ones who make this message stick. Thank you. 🤎

Everything you need - lesson plans, rules, and the submission form - is in the QR code and the link in our bio.

We can’t wait to see your submissions!
