The Midwives’ Association of Washington State (MAWS) is seeking Licensed Midwives and community members who feel called to step into leadership and help guide our statewide work in 2026 and beyond. This is a pivotal moment for midwifery in Washington State, a moment that asks for steady hands, visionary minds, and compassionate hearts. If you’ve ever felt that pull toward service, toward shaping the profession you love, we invite you to consider joining our Board of Directors.
MAWS is a community-rooted organization representing Licensed Midwives across Washington. For decades, MAWS has championed equitable access to midwifery care, advanced professional integration, protected scope and reimbursement, uplifted students, and centered racial and reproductive justice in everything we do. We are a community that believes that when midwives thrive, families and communities thrive — and it is our responsibility to build that future together.
