A pandemic can occur in many localities and even worldwide almost simultaneously. Although much of the planning for a pandemic rests on the shoulders of state and local governments, local communities can play a vital role in preparedness planning activities that delay or slow the impact of a pandemic and reduce the spread of disease until a vaccine is available!

Finding Our Stories | ASIAN AMERICAN MIDWIVES

https://asianamericanmidwives.org/2014/03/21/finding-our-stories

When I had the first inklings that my journey to midwifery had already begun, I started looking everywhere for stories of Asian American Midwives. I didn’t care what their background was, whether they attended births at home or in the hospital…I was just hungry to hear about the experiences of other students who share a similar cultural background. And, I’ve only found one book out there that explores the history of Asian American midwives,. Who did they serve? What drew them to their work? March 21, 2014.

Welcome | ASIAN AMERICAN MIDWIVES

https://asianamericanmidwives.org/about-3

My name is Lena Soo Hee Wood. I started this project because as a Korean-American nurse-midwifery student, I struggled to find other midwives out there who looked like me. I was inspired by Claudia Booker. A Certified Professional Midwife based in Washington, D.C., who recently gathered a collection of photos of Black midwives during African-American History month. And shared them on Facebook. I couldn’t help thinking,. 8220;Where are all the Asian-American midwives? There are midwives of color out there.
