Uzazi Village is committed to solving health inequities through the restoration of the Black midwife.  Our community-based midwives have long been missing from the healthcare landscape. Uzazi Village supports a midwife candidate via our clinical internship that assists candidates in meeting requirements for the NARM exam.  Selected candidates will work alongside our staff midwife to care for our clients in the Ida Mae Clinic.
