Meet Cynthia Jacinthe and Sierra Ribero, UChicago nurse midwives, who will talk about the field of midwifery and the many options for students interested in women’s health care. Some of these possibilities are community/public health, research and direct care. At UChicago, midwives are advanced practice nurses who specialize in pregnancy, labor and childbirth as well as postpartum, infant and well-woman care. Nurse midwives' expertise is rooted in a philosophy of care that prioritizes evidence-based practices and customizes the birth experience to each woman's unique health needs and preferences. Numerous studies associate midwifery with highly favorable outcomes for mothers and babies.
The Feminist/Queer Praxis series, aimed at undergraduate audiences, brings artists, activists, scholars, and professionals to CSGS to talk about their work in the world as people committed to queer and feminist values and action.
