Why is the Peer2Peer Support Program needed?
The Peer2Peer Support Program was developed in response to feedback from the ABTA community.
A need for the program is further demonstrated by the fact that one in three women identify their birth as traumatic [1], making physical and psychological birth trauma a major health issue in the community. Our members also report that parents who have a lived experience of birth trauma have a unique set of needs that are often not met by traditional mother’s groups/parenting groups. We have an amazing community of women who have received training to help support you – these are our Peer2Peer Mentors.
