The future begins with the way we are born.
The National Association of Certified Professional Midwives (NACPM) is the membership organization representing Certified Professional Midwives (CPM) in the United States. Certified Professional Midwives provide unique and critical access to normal physiologic birth, profoundly benefitting childbearing people and their newborns. Founded in 2000, NACPM ensures a powerful, collective voice for Certified Professional Midwives. NACPM directs its influence toward improving outcomes for all childbearing people and their infants, investing in a strong racially, ethnically, and socially representative CPM workforce, and helping to drive urgently needed changes in the systems that care for birthing people in the U.S. today.

In response to conversations during our Midwifery Student Social Hour and the consistent call from students for reliable, accessible clinical opportunities, NACPM is proud to launch the NACPM Preceptor Directory—a national, opt-in resource designed to connect student midwives with midwives who are open to serving as preceptors.
