Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Maternity Care
Providing culturally safe maternity care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and their families is essential to improve birthing outcomes.
This network was created to share culturally safe models of care and discuss issues that disproportionately impact Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women during pregnancy.
Chair: expression of interest
Who is it for?
