Overview

Mission

To create culturally responsive pregnancy and parenting experiences for Blak, immigrant, and refugee families.

What it reported doing in 2025

DOH's Parenting and Birth Support Program: Lactation services that includes lactation drop, lactation hotline and home visit for lactation support to expecting parents. Doulas services free of charge for Black and African American patients who do not have Medicaid. 176 lactation hotline contacts made; 46 lactation lounges held and 12 home visits made.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
