ACNM Bylaws Revision
What CNMA Members Need to Know Before April 16
The ACNM bylaws are being revised. The vote is April 16 at the ACNM Annual Open Business Meeting — a virtual event open to all ACNM/CNMA members. You should know what is in the revision before you vote.
Six motions have been submitted by CNMA members. The motions ask the ACNM Board to fix some things that got lost in the revision. Here is what they ask.
The motions:
Life Members have always been able to support their state affiliate through dues. The new revision takes that away. Motion 1: Affiliate Membership for Life Members and Motion 6: Affiliate Dues Authority ask that it be put back. No one is required to pay anything. Each affiliate works it out with its own members. The point is to keep the option open.
A donation is not the same as dues. Dues make you a counted member. They give you a voice. They give your affiliate something it can plan around. The proposed revision removes that without explanation.
Motion 2: Affiliate Support asks the ACNM Board to set up a simple way to collect and send Life Member affiliate dues to affiliates. It is a practical fix for a gap that has existed too long.
Motion 5: Member Services Commitment asks that ACNM's commitment to serving its members be written back into the bylaws. The current bylaws list 17 specific ways ACNM supports members. The revision cuts that to 2. The motion asks for the most important ones back.
Motion 4: 120-Day Open Door asks that members keep the right to propose bylaws amendments with adequate notice. The revision removes the deadline. The motion puts it back.
Motion 3: Bylaws Transparency asks the ACNM Board to tell members when the bylaws text changes between versions. Multiple versions were posted without any announcement. The motion asks for a simple notification policy going forward.
Why it matters:
California has more Life Members than almost any other affiliate. What happens to Life Member dues affects CNMA directly. Beyond that, the revision moves governance authority away from members and toward the ACNM Board. That is worth understanding before you vote.
What to do:
Read the motions. The online debate on Connect closes April 2 at midnight ET — that is the deadline for joining the discussion. After that, everything posted remains available to read. The vote is April 16. It is online. It takes minutes. Everyone is welcome to attend and vote regardless of whether they participated in the debate.
Register here: https://www.pathlms.com/acnm/webinars/83397
Full motion text, supporting statements, and a side-by-side comparison of the current bylaws and both proposed drafts are in the ACNM Business Meeting Motions community on Connect at connect.midwife.org.
Your voice matters. Use it.
Many thanks,

This is a collaborative space for all those interested in advancing equitable, high-quality maternity care in rural communities. This all-members forum is set up to share resources, identify workforce and access challenges, highlight innovative models of care, and foster professional support among midwives serving rural populations. Please join, introduce yourself, and post your thoughts and questions about any rural maternal health issue you would like to explore. If you currently work in a rural setting, please share with us your day-to-day challenges, struggles, and triumphs, as well as your joyful moments and strategies for providing maternal/newborn care.

Education, Trainings, Webinars, and More
ACNM Open Business Meeting
The ACNM Open Business Meeting is scheduled for April 16, and all members — including students — are encouraged to participate. Submitting a motion is one of the few direct ways members can formally propose actions, policy changes, or official positions for the organization to consider and vote on.
Motions can be used to shape organizational policy, propose bylaw changes, introduce resolutions on issues relevant to midwifery practice or health policy, and more. This is not a ceremonial occasion — it's a meaningful opportunity to put specific ideas before the membership body and influence ACNM's direction.
If you're not sure where to start, consider reviewing last year's motions (ACNM member login required) to see if anything sparks an idea worth bringing forward.

Workforce Development & Educational Support (WDES) Committee Update
The Workforce Development and Education Support Committee updates for March activities include:
Monitoring the HCAI Health Workforce Education and Training Council
On March 4, we monitored the latest Health Workforce Education and Training Council meeting and provided public comment on maternal health workforce priorities, a focus of the meeting. Another major focus was the Rural Health Transformation (RHT) Program, a federal initiative through CMS that has awarded California over $233 million for 2026 to bolster the rural health workforce and improve access to primary and maternity care. CNMA will continue to collaborate with HCAI (CA Dept of Health Care Access and Information) to bolster the role of midwifery in rural areas and throughout California.
Modeling the Future of Maternity Care
WDES co-chair Kim Dau is participating in the development of the Department of Health Care Access and Information (HCAI) maternity care workforce supply and demand model. The study will investigate what factors influence the supply, capacity, distribution, and diversity of maternal health providers—as well as the demand for maternal health services across populations and care settings in California. Mathematica is leading the study, which will take place over the next four months. Please keep an eye out for future communication asking for stakeholder input. We need midwifery voices. HCAI has previously published a supply/demand model for nursing and the behavioral health workforce.
Nurse-Midwifery Advisory Committee (NMAC) to the Board of Registered Nursing (BRN)
The next NMAC meeting is April 28, 2026. The committee meets twice a year. The agenda is not yet published, but the BRN will post it online in advance of the meeting, as well as the meeting link. Members of the public are invited to attend and provide comment in person or via WebEx. "The committee shall make recommendations to the board on all matters related to midwifery practice, education, appropriate standard of care, and other matters as specified by the board. CNMA members are encouraged to contact NMAC members regarding issues they would like the committee to address.
Questions about these WDES announcements or the work of WDES more generally can reach out to kim.dau@gmail.com!

Job Opportunities
Two Openings at the Black Midwifery Fellowship
We are sharing 2 midwifery fellowship openings for the Black Midwifery Fellowship (BMF) in California. The BMF is a comprehensive full scope post graduate midwifery fellowship open to all with a focus on abortion training. More information about the fellowship, job description, requirements & how to apply can be found on our website here. Questions? submit here!
A few highlights below:
The BMF in California is a one-year non-renewable fellowship recruiting two certified nurse-midwives (CNM) positions as clinical instructors at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) School of Medicine. Salary is expected to be $129,850 for 70% FTE effort (average of 28 hours a week). Fellows are paid and eligible for benefits in accordance with university policy. The incoming candidates will provide full scope nurse-midwifery clinical care including antepartum, intrapartum, postpartum, family planning services, with a focus in abortion. The BMF is led by exceptional advanced practice providers and features practice-based learning, didactic education, mentorship and scholarly projects. The program is designed for new graduates (within 24 months of program completion) to expand the knowledge and skills acquired during graduate or doctoral training. Throughout the course of the fellowship year, a fellow can expect ongoing mentorship and engagement in self-assessment and performance feedback framed in practice-based knowledge, skills and attitudes. The program is a one-year commitment expected to run from Summer/Fall 2026-2027. Each fellow is expected to complete midwifery-based training with didactic and focused clinical rotations.
The name of our fellowship is a legacy tribute to Black Midwives in the United States. Prior to the Civil War abortion and contraceptive care were legal, and Black Midwives provided community-based care inclusive of abortion care and reproductive health care to all communities. Post legalized enslavement there was a public and national smearing campaign of Black Midwives in the obstetric field as physicians sought capital gain, recognition, and a professional monopoly. These actions excluded the advancement and continued work of Black Midwives in this country as a trusted provider, especially in Black communities. Additionally, midwifery governing organizations barred Black people from membership, further severing Black Midwives from their own communities. With the loss of Black Midwifery, there was also loss of cultural safety, respect, wisdom, truth-telling, and the nurturance that Black midwives provide to communities. Today, less than 9% of US midwives are Black. There is no way to correct the harms of these actions, though there is repair work to be done now. The Black Midwifery Fellowship in California is one form of this.
SF Birth Center Opportunity
Hello friends and colleagues,
I am planning to step down from my role as Director and midwife at the SF Birth Center at the end of 2026. As we begin thinking about the next phase of the birth center, we are looking for someone who is passionate about the birth center model of care and who has an entrepreneurial spirit—someone who might be interested in picking up the baton and building a practice for the next decade (and beyond).
This is not a traditional job announcement. Rather than a salaried position, this is an invitation to explore what you are interested in creating and how you might bring your vision to life. While we certainly have ideas about what a birth center practice might look like, the future direction would be shaped by your vision.
Importantly, this is not something you would need to build from scratch. The right person or team would be supported in two key ways:
Mentorship and operational support. My team and I will support and mentor you as you develop your vision, sharing our experience about what has worked in the past, the current state and national landscape for birth centers, the health insurance environment, business considerations, and more. The practice already has many core systems in place, including communication platforms, charting, administrative processes, and hospital relationships.
Facility and foundation support. The SF Birth Center facility is owned by the SF Birth Center Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with two primary roles. First, it manages the facility itself, holding the lease and overseeing needs such as cleaning, supplies, and improvements. Equally important, the board of directors is active and successful in fundraising and community engagement. In addition to supporting the facility, the foundation can help supplement certain aspects of care at the birth center and support special projects aligned with its mission.
If this resonates with you, or if you simply have questions, please feel free to reach out. And if you know someone who might be interested, I would be grateful if you shared this with them.
With joy and affection,
Nancy Myrick, CNMA
Director
San Francisco Birth Center

Volunteer Opportunities
Did You Have a Hard Time Finding a Preceptor?
To our new California midwifery grads: CONGRATULATIONS on finishing your midwifery program! We are so proud and happy for you. Please remind yourself often of the great significance of your accomplishment and give yourself a big hug.
CNMA’s Workforce Development and Educational Support (Co-chairs Melanie Cabezas Phipps and Kim Dau) are aware that many midwifery students, particularly those in distance-learning programs, have expressed (and continue to express) frustration, delays, and stress in finding preceptors. This is not a new issue, and we are actively working to improve the situation. California is the state with the most midwives of any state in our nation, so our work here impacts the entire profession. Let’s organize to change things so that our current and future students don't have to go through what so many of us did. With your help, we can make a difference.
Tell us your narratives. If you had difficulty finding preceptors, please share your experience with us by emailing Melanie at mphippsm@gmail.com. What issues did you have? What happened, what could have happened and didn't (or did), what should have happened, what worked/didn't work, how would you like to see things change? Your thoughts, suggestions, and insights are greatly appreciated. All responses are kept in confidence.
