About The Historic Jamaa Birth Village Cultural Heritage Center
At The Historic Jamaa Birth Village Cultural Heritage Center, we honor and preserve the sacred traditions of African Indigenous midwifery while continuing our mission to provide community-centered maternal health, education, and cultural healing. As Missouri’s first Black-led midwifery clinic, we’ve evolved into a national cultural landmark, anchoring three groundbreaking programs:
The African Indigenous Midwifery Museum™
The Black Midwifery Library & Research Institute™
Okunsola’s School of Traditional Midwifery™
Family Doula Trainings
Midwifery & Doula Care
Our legacy is rooted in restoring visibility, dignity, and access for families through sacred birthing traditions, intergenerational wisdom, and advocacy. As we expand our work, we are building a passionate, mission-aligned team to help carry this vision forward.
