Facilitator: Melissa Brown, is an Indigenous Dene Midwife.
A Full Spectrum Indigenous Doula is a specially trained support person that provides a high level of culturally rooted informational, emotional, and physical support throughout the life cycle including the perinatal period.
This peer mentorship role differs from the clinical role of a midwife. There are no clinical skills required, though a basic understanding of clinical interventions and the healthcare system in which families receive care are important skills.
