Care In Action Conference 2027

(tickets at bottom)

This day is designed for birth and perinatal professionals who need more than information. You need practical tools for the moments that are hard, complicated, and high stakes. And you need support for the weight that comes with doing this work well.

You were taught how to do the work. You were not taught how to carry the weight of it. Care In Action is about both.

What You’ll Gain:

• Practical, trauma-informed tools for pregnancy and infant loss

• Better recognition and response to pregnancy-specific anxiety, suicidality, and crisis

• Real-world learning about postpartum psychosis and serious perinatal mental health concerns

• Skills for supporting partners and the whole family system

• Experiential learning around secondary trauma and sustaining yourself in this work

• Connection with professionals across disciplines who understand the realities of perinatal care

• 6 CE hours in one practical, impactful day
