ABOUT


HISTORY

Everyday Miracles was founded in 2003 by Debby Nelson and Mary Williams—built on their beliefs that every birthing family has a right to evidence-based prenatal care; That everyone should be empowered, supported and celebrated during pregnancy, birth and postpartum—regardless of age, race, or socioeconomic status. The work we do is inspired by the commitment, resilience and strength we see in the families we serve every single day.

In 2009 they opened the Everyday Miracles Pregnancy Center in Northeast Minneapolis. 


MISSION

Our mission is to improve birth outcomes and reduce health disparities by providing evidence-based education, compassionate and culturally aware support and a non-judgmental, caring community.


COMMITMENT TO FAMILIES & COMMUNITY

Our community is for all families. While our services are available to those who qualify as clients for no out-of-pocket cost, anyone is welcome to take advantage of our services—including prenatal yoga, childbirth and breastfeeding education, wellness practitioners and more.  You can feel good knowing that your fees come right back to our program to directly support our work.
