Overview
Mission
The Oregon doula association serves as a unifying, inclusive, statewide professional organization for doulas. We provide support and resources for doulas. We publicly educate on and advocate for the benefits of doula care.
What it reported doing in 2024
ODA provides technical assistance to Doulas, guiding them in the process of becoming state registered Traditional Health Workers as well as troubleshooting Medicaid billing processes. Our TA goes beyond supporting the workforce, we also collaborate and partner with Coordinated Care Organizations under the Oregon Health Plan, and other community based organizations looking at best practices for integration of Doulas. This entails annual conferences with CEU's as well as participation in State committees, which may include advocacy for rule changes.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Grant-funded. 92% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
