🇺🇸 Advocating for Midwifery Care 🇺🇸

Today, our affiliate took to the Hill to advocate for midwifery care in Arkansas—what a meaningful way to celebrate International Day of the Midwife!

Although Congress was not in session due to the recent visit from King Charles, we were grateful for the opportunity to meet with the dedicated staff of Representatives Womack and Hill. We had an important discussion about the impact of the Midwives for Moms Act and the BABIES Act and why these bills matter for families across our state.

Your voice matters—don’t forget to reach out to your legislators and urge them to support these critical efforts!

In honor of the International Day of the Midwife, the American College of Nurse-Midwives (ACNM) is pleased to offer a special, limited-time opportunity to join or renew your membership.

From May 2 through May 5, all national annual memberships will automatically receive a 20% discount.

Whether you are joining for the first time, renewing your commitment, or returning after a lapse, this is an ideal moment to engage with a professional community dedicated to advancing midwifery practice, education, and policy. This offer is available to new, current, and expired members.

Please note that this promotion applies only to national memberships and does not extend to state affiliate memberships, subscriptions, or other purchases. Installment payment options will be temporarily unavailable during the flash sale period, and memberships purchased prior to May 2 are not eligible for retroactive adjustment.

ACNM membership provides access to essential clinical resources, continuing education, professional networking, and national advocacy efforts that elevate and protect midwifery practice. Your participation strengthens the collective voice of midwives and contributes directly to improving maternal and newborn health outcomes.

As you celebrate International Day of the Midwife, we also encourage you to explore global activities and recognition of the profession, as well as upcoming ACNM events throughout May.

If you have questions or need assistance, please contact us at 240-485-1820 or [email protected].
We look forward to welcoming you or welcoming you back during this special time.

Sincerely,
ACNM Membership Team

This is an easy way to contact your state representative and ask them to support HB1215 for Full Practice Authority for CNMs in Arkansas.

I would like to express my support of HB1215, which will grant full practice authority to Certified Nurse-Midwives (CNMs) in Arkansas. Our state is experiencing a maternal and infant healthcare crisis. We have the 4th highest number of maternal...

The CMS said the birth center model could help Medicaid programs that want to impr...

This is great news promoting Midwifery-led care as beneficial to mothers and cost-effective for Medicaid patients! This could create quite a ripple effect in our healthcare system...

A new report from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) demonstrates that birth center care has a larger potential impact on the reduction of preterm birth risk than any other recent medical or public health intervention. Freestanding birth centers also lower cesarean rates, increase breastfeeding, and produce higher satisfaction with care.
