Doula Day; recognize January 29, 2026

This resolution (SR 641) designates January 29, 2026, as "Doula Day" at the Georgia Capitol to honor doulas and their work in maternal health. It recognizes doulas’ role in improving birth outcomes, reducing unnecessary medical interventions, and addressing disparities affecting Black mothers, families with disabilities, and rural communities with limited maternity care access. The resolution specifically highlights Georgia-based doulas and organizations like Bellies to Babies Foundation for their contributions to maternal health. As a ceremonial resolution, it does not create new laws or funding but symbolically acknowledges their impact on statewide maternal care.
