To improve maternal and infant health outcomes for youth impacted by or aging out of foster care, The New Foster Care (TNFC) will provide comprehensive doula services, mental health care, and engage in systems advocacy. TNFC will integrate pre- and post-partum doula services into its programs, train staff on therapeutic practices, and collaborate with partners to create and share a manual for maternal health tailored to youth in foster care, with the goal of creating a replicable model for systemic change.
