Overview

Mission

JustBirth Space supports pregnancy, postpartum, & beyond.

What it reported doing in 2024

General programs - we provided direct virtual support to pregnant and postpartum individuals, offering guidance, video support, and accessible perinatal care. We also provided community-based educational classes on pregnancy and postpartum wellness, ensuring families had culturally grounded information and resources. In addition, we provided training and education to health systems to strengthen their capacity and created an accountability curriculum and toolkit that centered birth justice, cultural humility, and trauma-informed care. Our virtual support, educational classes, and training to health systems served 8,464 people.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% 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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
