LUNA MAYA, CASA DE PARTOS


Luna Maya Birth Center works to ensure that all women in Chiapas have access to humanized health care, including safe and humanized birth. We believe that women in Chiapas have the right to make informed choices about their bodies and have access to the necessary resources to ensure health and wellbeing. We believe in access to safe motherhood as a human right leading to the empowerment of women, enhancements in quality of life, and the strengthening of families.

Our organization is dedicated to the holistic health of women and families and to the promotion of sexual and reproductive rights and the right to safe motherhood. We invite you to get to know our center and the services and educational programs we offer!

Luna Maya needs your support!  We are in the midst of a fundraising campaign for much needed support that will let us continue our work with women and families in Chiapas, México.  You can collaborate through cash donations, through the donation of computer equipment and medical supplies, through hosting a fundraising event in your city, or through our new program Sponsor a Birth!  As of september 2009 we are no longer funded and would like to be able to sustain our low prices and service to the community. We need your help! Click on any one of the links to read more and help us continue our important and unique work.  

Notice 

Please note: At this time we are not accepting apprentices who are not Mexican and do not live in Mexico. We are focusing on increasing the number of midwives who serve women in Mexico. If you are not Mexican or do not live in Mexico please do not apply to our apprenticeship program.
For interested applicants, our following opening will be in January 2012.
Thank you.
