Bridging the Birthing Gap™ Virtual Summit

Connecting Voices Across the Maternal–Infant Care Continuum

May 15–16, 2026 | FREE LIVE ATTENDANCE

There’s a gap that we don’t talk about enough in perinatal care...

Not openly. Not across roles. Not in the same room.

We talk about outcomes. We talk about protocols.

We talk about what should happen.

But underneath all of that…

There’s still confusion. There’s still tension.

There are still moments where things

don’t quite connect—and families feel it.

And this is not because there's a lack of care.

But because we’ve been trained, supported, and positioned in silos.

If you’ve ever felt this… you’re not alone.

“Why does it feel like we’re working toward the same goal, but speaking different languages?”
“Why do handoffs break down, even when everyone is trying?”
“Why do families leave feeling confused, unsupported, or overwhelmed?”
“Why does collaboration feel harder than it should be?”

These are not individual failures, but system gaps.

And they can be bridged, but only if we’re willing to look at them together.

Bridging the Birthing Gap™ is a virtual, interdisciplinary summit designed to bring people across maternal–infant care into the same conversation.

Made possible by trusted partners in maternal–infant health. ❤
