Who we are

Advocacy, education and community for certified nurse-midwives across Texas

The Consortium of Texas Certified Nurse-Midwives is the Texas affiliate of the American College of Nurse-Midwives. In light of the maternal health crisis in Texas, we believe midwifery is a crucial part of the solution.

Our history

Why CTCNM

“I joined CTCNM because no midwife in Texas should practice alone. Here I found mentors when I was a new grad, a voice at the Capitol when our scope was on the line, and colleagues who pick up the phone at 2 a.m. when I need a second opinion. Together we are changing what birth looks like for Texas families.”
