Who We Are 

Birth Options Alliance (BOA) provides information and mutual support to expectant parents about their choices regarding childbirth in the Washington, DC area, and advocates for the expansion of birth options.  Our group consists of current and expectant parents, as well as midwives, doulas, childbirth educators and other birth professionals .

In this section of our website, you can learn more about our mission and history, get to know our board members, and find out how to contact us.  
BOA's lists of Washington DC area birth professionals and resources are available to our community free of charge, and being listed in these directories is a free service to the birth community as well.  If you are a provider who has benefited from being listed in our directory, we would welcome a donation in any amount to defray costs of maintaining our website.  Thank you!
