DONA International – www.dona.org
Our founders are among the foremost experts on doula care, and DONA International certification is a widely
respected measure of quality and professionalism. We are an international, non-profit organization of doulas that
strives to have every doula trained and educated to provide the highest quality standards for birth and/or postpartum
support to birthing women and their families. To that end, we promote continuing education for doulas and provide a
strong communication link among doulas and between doulas, families and the medical birthing community.
