Training with DONA&ALACE: what if there's a conflict of mission statements?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Doula.Com General Discussion : One Thread

CAPPA and ALACE seem to have pretty much the same vision when it comes to natural birth and helping the mother feel empoered, from what I've read on their sites. But of a person trains with DONA and ALACE or CAPPA, can a doula or labor assisstant get in trouble with DONA when endorsing and promoting what ALACE or CAPPA teaches? I've read the previous messages her in the forum, and now that I'm choosing where to go, I need some guidance. It's important to me to be able to speak up and be able to take insurance from moms who can only afford a doula that way. Thanks, Kelly
