Prison Birth Storytelling Project

$0.00

This project is a collaboration between The Ostara Initiative, Minnesota Prison Doula Project, Alabama Prison Birth Project and Hamline University’s Public Health Senior Seminar and Center for Justice and Law. Over Fall of 2021, we engaged in humanizing research practices including meeting with people who gave birth while incarcerated. Thirteen college seniors spent 15 weeks with their professor, Susi Keefe, connecting with and listening to prison birth stories. This project represents the experiences of our participants with a goal to assist the Ostara Initiative and contribute to end prison birth within the next ten years.
