Grant #58

Open Arms

February 8, 2014

Central Texas Birth Center is creating a positive birth experience for low-income moms in Texas.

Open Arms is a project born of love and service at the Central Texas Birth Center.

Central Texas Birth Center’s staff has been serving Central Texas and surrounding areas for almost three years now, and have poured their lives into countless women and their families in immeasurable ways.

Midwifery care is a whole-family, wellness-based approach to pregnancy, birth, and childbearing years. The Open Arms program has a dedicated team of midwives, students, and staff trained to cater to the needs of the families in the program. Whether it is education on the best car seat for the lowest price or a how to cook healthy on a budget, the families of Open Arms are loved and supported throughout their journey.

We’re excited to say the AWB Grant will be used to purchase vital equipment to use during births and prenatal care. Learn more about the Open Arms project on their website and on Facebook.
