Birthing Center Association
The Birthing Center Association is an organization that supports and promotes the use of birthing centers—healthcare facilities dedicated to providing a more comfortable, personalized childbirth experience outside of traditional hospitals. They focus on ensuring safe, evidence-based care for low-risk pregnancies, often emphasizing natural childbirth options, family involvement, and a homelike environment. The association provides resources, training, and standards to improve the quality of care in these centers, aiming to enhance maternal satisfaction and outcomes while offering an alternative to hospital births for eligible women.
