"...NACM and CAM advocate that a reproductive justice framework during the COVID-19 pandemic, and at all times, be applied to all perinatal care services.

Indigenous, Black, racialized, and 2SLGBTQ midwives have long advocated for reproductive justice and work tirelessly to support our communities to heal from historical and ongoing trauma and violence experienced within health care settings. A reproductive justice approach to care is community responsive. It recognizes that overlapping systems of oppression, histories, and trauma have an enduring impact on access to health care and the ability of all people to make free, informed, self-determined health care decisions."
