What is a Black gender doula?
A doula can offer holistic support to someone and their loved ones through a pivotal period or major shift in life.
Some doulas offer services for someone’s birth or death, but a gender doula helps people through journeys related to one’s gender (like exploring gender identity, providing guidance for gender-affirming care, and more).
A Black gender doula provides culturally-informed and anti-racist services for trans and genderqueer people across the African diaspora. Rising to meet the distinct and nuanced needs of their clients, a Black gender doula centers culture and identity in their care.
