As a community member and medical doctor practising obstetrics in Banff I am deeply concerned about the recent decision to close obstetrics in the Banff hospital and consolidate services in Canmore. |

About ASAC
|
|
Did you know? ASAC was formed in 1979 to support childbearing families. ASAC was, and continues to be, a completely volunteer-run organization. Birth Issues started as a newsletter, typed out on a typewriter and photocopied. Now, ASAC spends thousands of dollars each issue on design, printing, and distribution of our beloved magazine. Costs have steadily crept up; ASAC has made recent budget cuts to reflect a new reality. But we will need contributions from folks like you to keep Birth Issues in print, and to keep our many other programs (i.e. play group, lecture series, movie screenings, conferences, resource library, trade show displays, etc.) running. Click on the button below to make a tax-deductible online donation at canadahelps.org. Thank you.  |

About ASAC
|
|
The Association for Safe Alternatives in Childbirth is a part of a growing network of parents and health professionals who believe that childbirth is a normal and healthy part of life, of special significance to the pregnant woman and her family. ASAC was created to encourage alternatives to the technological approach. We believe parents have the right and the responsibility to make informed choices about childbirth and that a full range of options should be available to them -- in the hospital, at home, in a birthing centre and with professional care givers of their choice. We are particularly oriented toward midwifery, and we are based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. |
