Our Mission is simple: Improve birth outcomes. Ensure no one births alone.
GALS is dedicated to providing emotional, physical, and informational support to birthing people and healthcare providers who are under-supported in order to improve birth outcomes and strengthen families.
All programs are provided at no cost to families.
On Call Birth Support
Birthworkers provide support to anyone actively in labor and birthing alone or under-supported, through postpartum. This program is available 24/7, 365.
Prenatal Doula Program
Support for families and individuals beginning in pregnancy, including birth and postpartum support. This program models the traditional doula relationship for more the vulnerable families in our community.
Postpartum Doula Support
Support for individuals and families after the birth of their baby. GALS offers in home, individualized support that can include 20 or more hours of infant care, emotional support, light cleaning and cooking, as well as informational child-development support.
Jail support program
This partnership between GALS and the Travis County Correctional Complex provides weekly support groups (and fruits and vegetables) to those who are pregnant and incarcerated, as well as birth support if they go into labor while at TCCC, as otherwise they would be alone. Support includes lactation during incarceration- working to provide access to pumps, milk storage, and milk delivery options for the family caring for their little one.
Childcare for Black Mamas Program
This is a partnership with the Maternal Health Equity Collaborative to offer perinatal childcare for Black families during doctor's visits, mental health care, birth, postpartum respite care, and more. This perinatal support is offered for families involved in GALS, Black Mamas ATX, Mama Sana Vibrant Woman, and Healing Hands Community Doula Project as a compliment to wrap around doula support.
