Working for Better Outcomes
The North Carolina Perinatal Association brings together a diverse community of professionals and advocates committed to improving maternal and infant health across our state. Whether you work in public health, clinical practice, hospital systems, or community organizations, or you're simply passionate about perinatal wellness, you'll find a home here.
Why Membership Matters
When dedicated professionals and informed consumers collaborate, extraordinary things happen. NCPA creates the space for this collaboration through education, advocacy, networking, and recognition. Since 1985, our multidisciplinary membership has united physicians, nurses, midwives, social workers, childbirth educators, lactation consultants, and many others in pursuit of healthier pregnancies, safer births, and thriving families.
