Rally for Midwives, Raleigh ~ April 19th 11am-2pm
Thank you for making the time and commitment to advocate for access to CPMs in North Carolina! We want to make your efforts of support as smooth as possible. Here’s our guide:
Step 1: Let us know you’re planning to attend. Fill out this short FORM about who’s coming and your travel needs.
Step 2: ASAP ~ Reach out to your Legislators now to schedule a visit while you are there. Find out who represents you (you have a NC Senator and a NC House Representative). Email or call the offices. Let them know that you will be in town and would like a few minutes of their time to share the importance of Licensing Certified Professional Midwives.
Step 3: Prepare for Rally Day (being updated - check back for missing info soon)
