The California Association of Midwives (CAM) is a non-profit professional organization representing midwives statewide. CAM membership includes midwives, students, and a supporting membership of other healthcare professionals and consumers. We invite all midwives in California to join us in creating a vital, collaborative perinatal healthcare system. CAM general and regional meetings are open to the public.
CAM Supports:

  • Recognition of midwives as primary care givers and experts in normal childbirth.
  • The right of women to have access to midwives at home, in freestanding birth centers and in hospitals.
  • A variety of educational routes to midwifery practice, including apprenticeship, independent study, and formal coursework, and acceptance of midwives from diverse educational backgrounds.

Midwife members of CAM come from diverse educational backgrounds with many different styles of practice. Together we are a strong voice for the highest and safest standard of maternity care—
Midwifery!


Upcoming CAM Board of Director meetings are Saturday and Sunday July 25 and 26 in Sacramento and Wednesday October 21st in Santa Cruz.
