WHAT we do

The Victoria Project is supporting access to maternity care that is safe, dignified and empowering by offering choices to mothers, birthing people and their families.

We give direct grants to individuals, organizations and practitioners for comprehensive perinatal services, specifically pregnancy, birth and postpartum care provided by midwives at home or at a birth center.

TVP is creating a culture where families are supported with compassion and respect- regardless of their background or circumstances.

Our values

  • We honor that trust must be earned and we make every effort to work with our family beneficiaries and practitioners to develop trust by creating clear communication pathways, expectations and avenues for feedback.

    Trust, choice and safety go hand in hand. Families who are able to choose their maternity care providers often feel safer and have more positive pregnancy and birth outcomes.

    At TVP we support families in having a true choices in their childbirth journey.

  • We value the dignity of every person that interacts with our organization.

    We recognize that pregnant families in America often find themselves vulnerable in a broken system with high rates of mortality and morbidity, confounded by racial and social disparities. The process of asking for financial assistance can add to this vulnerability.

    A family's journey with TVP begins at the intake process and ends after their care has finished. We believe that this entire process deserves reverence and dignity.

  • We believe each individual knows what is best for them and we hope to empower families in places where doubt and conditioning has encouraged them otherwise.

    When parents feel equipped with knowledge and community support they no longer hand their decision making power over to others.

testimonials

“I was given space and the opportunity to communicate all my needs without judgment - only love and concern from people who seemed so genuine . This is kind of an unreal experience when previously in the traditional maternal care world.”

“I felt trusted to know what was right for me.”

“I was given the opportunity to trust my own intuition when making decisions in my pregnancy birth and postpartum.”

“I've experienced a lot of medical related trauma from western medicine in my past which has led to long term anxiety issues.

We had a trauma free birth and felt so empowered and encouraged and supported every step of the way.

It allowed me to have a faith in my body and in Mother Nature that I've never had before.

The way I view myself and my body and its abilities has been forever changed for the better.”
