This could include such populations as:
• individuals who immigrated to Canada • people of colour; indigenous and LGBTQ individuals • individuals who work with or are a part of the incarcerated-women’s community; • individuals who work with or are a part of the homeless person’s population There will be one designated scholarship spot in the Labor Doula and Postpartum Doula training. Participants are evaluated based on the population they are planning to work with and the level of need in the community population.

Full Circle strives to provide opportunities to individuals who wish to be agents of change in their community.
Serving others through this amazing life-altering event and making an impact on families and the community, |
We have noticed in our doula community, many people are underrepresented.
We are hoping to help create diversity by having more doulas serving these areas. |
We know doulas are world changers and greatly impact our community and improve birth outcomes for all individuals and families.
