The Miles Foundation
Catalyzing Compassionate Care for Families Impacted by Maternal Loss and Grief
About The Miles Foundation
Our Mission: We believe that every individual deserves to have access to maternal care that is compassionate and honors their lived experience.
The Miles Foundation provides direct funding and access to maternal health organizations and businesses that center whole person, autonomous maternal care with a focus on grief and healing. We value traditional midwifery, out-of-hospital care, and healing. We give grants to organizations and practitioners for individuals who have directly experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, infertility, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), or Sudden Unexpected Death in Childhood (SUDC), and or trauma. Learn more about our black birth equity initiative.
Black Birth Equity
Black midwives play an important role in ensuring Black mothers and birthing people can access prenatal care that makes them feel secure and cared for. Especially Black mothers and birthing people, who experience negative birth and pregnancy outcomes at higher rates than other racial and ethnic groups.
