Postpartum Support International (PSI) was founded in 1987 by Jane Honikman. The purpose of the organization is to increase awareness among public and professional communities about the emotional changes that individuals and families experience during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. PSI has members all over the world, including volunteer coordinators in every one of the United States and in 50+ countries. PSI disseminates information and resources through its volunteer coordinators, website, DVD, and annual conference. Its goal is to provide current information, resources, education, and to advocate for further research and legislation to support perinatal mental health.
Every Family, Every Baby, Everywhere.
That has been CAPPA's mission since 1998, and it starts with one question every future perinatal professional asks: Where do I get trained?
CAPPA trains and certifies professionals across five pathways: Certified Labor Doula (CLD), Certified Postpartum Doula (CPD), Certified Childbirth Educator (CCCE), Certified Lactation Educator (CLE), and Certified Infant & Family Educator (CIFE).
Our training is built on compassionate, nonjudgmental, and empathetic care. We prepare professionals to empower families with knowledge, confidence, and support so every birthing person can make informed decisions and have their rights upheld throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
CAPPA takes a community-first approach because professionals who are supported build sustainable, successful careers, and successful professionals serve more families. Members get access to weekly career coaching office hours, monthly community townhalls, the CAPPA Care Directory connecting them directly with families, and a professional network of peers and mentors invested in each other's growth.
Training formats meet you where you are. Live virtual, in-person, and hybrid options led by experienced trainers across North America, delivered through a modern platform built for easy access and recertification.
Trusted by Parkland Health, Cook Children's Health Care System, Harris County Public Health, Texas Woman's University, Postpartum Support International, Lansinoh, Baby Brezza, and Cord Blood Registry, and many more.
For hospitals, universities, and organizations looking to build or strengthen perinatal training programs, CAPPA has nearly three decades of experience doing exactly that.
