The Birth Circle Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Athens, Ohio. Our mission is to empower and support families on their journeys to and through parenthood by providing information, resources, and community.

Our purpose is to offer services, support, and fellowship to families with young children and their loved ones. We encourage members to share their thoughts or concerns about pregnancy, childbirth, and parenting and we explore all options available to birthing families, while promoting a feeling of openness; all backgrounds, experiences, and choices are honored. 

We offer discussion and support groups, workshops, guest speakers, and other resources for new and soon-to-be families. We can help to connect with information on local resources such as evidence-based prenatal and perinatal practices and services such as obstetrician offices, local doulas, certified midwife providers, and lactation consultants. The Birth Circle aims to allow parents and families to learn, grow, and heal through their experiences. As a group, we hope to share in each other’s lives, creating a sense of community through the experience of parenthood.
