Shafia Monroe is known as the Queen Mother of the Midwifery movement. She began pursuing her mission to uplift Black birthing families and reduce maternal healthcare disparities in Boston (USA) during the 1970s.
Not long after, she founded the first organization to develop a doula training curriculum based on the legacy of the 20th-century African American midwife.
She currently resides in Portland, OR, and Boston Doula Circle is thrilled to help welcome Mama Shafia Monroe back to Boston to lead her one-of-a-kind doula training on November 6-9, 2025!
Start planning now to join us for this truly exciting occasion!
