<div class="NTForums_Quote">Posted By Henci Goer on 02/21/2007 10:09 PM<br>The Citizens for Midwifery website has some useful documents for the sorts of things you want to do at <a target=_blank href="http://cfmidwifery.org/advocacy/">http://cfmidwifery.org/advocacy/</A>. They also have an article specifically on writing complaint letters at <a target=_blank href="http://cfmidwifery.org/Resources/Item.aspx?ID=1">http://cfmidwifery.org/Resources/Item.aspx?ID=1</A>. As far as win-win negotiating goes, you can't do better than <EM>Getting to Yes</EM>, a classic in the field.<BR><BR>In my own community, Bay Area Birth Information, (BABI), (<a target=_blank href="http://www.bayareabirthinfo.org/">http://www.bayareabirthinfo.org/</A>), one of the CIMS/Lamaze Birth Networks, has an annual BABI fair. The 3rd annual one is coming up, and it has grown every year. Besides exhibits, they have activities and food, and free mini-talks on various topics that go on during the day. The Santa Cruz Birth Network (<a target=_blank href="http://www.birthnet.org/index.php">http://www.birthnet.org/index.php</A>) holds quarterly Pregnancy Information Nights. Two women have opened Harmony, a birth resources center (<a target=_blank href="http://www.harmonybirth.com/">http://www.harmonybirth.com/</A>). Various classes are held there. A marriage and family counselor who specializes in perinatal mood disorders has her office there. They just expanded their space, and a lactation consultant will now have office space there too.<BR><BR>-- Henci</div><br><br>
