Opportunities to Support Mothers and Deliver Children Act

This bill provides $10 million in federal grants to fund 3-year demonstration projects that train low-income individuals (under 138% of the federal poverty level) to become doulas or midwives. Projects must occur in states that already recognize and reimburse these professionals through public or private health insurance. The grants support career pathways with accessible entry points, certification standards, improved wages, and benefits like health coverage, requiring partnerships with qualified entities like hospitals or workforce boards. It targets communities with limited access to maternal care services through structured workforce development programs.
