About MDA
The Missouri Doula Association is a statewide network of doulas and birth professionals dedicated to improving maternal health across Missouri. From rural communities to urban centers, we see the challenges families face—and we are committed to making a difference together.
We serve as a central hub for connection, collaboration, and shared resources, empowering doulas to strengthen their impact and expand access to care. Our work focuses on improving coordination across healthcare, public health, and community-based services—reducing barriers and strengthening closed-loop referrals. Together, we are building a more connected system of care where every Missouri family can thrive.
