our mission

The mission of the Midwifery Institute is to provide accessible birth professional education to prepare competent, entrepreneurial, ethical and compassionate leaders in community maternal care to serve all individuals with an emphasis on women and families in diverse, rural and underserved populations.

our Vision

We believe everyone should have access to maternal community providers of their choice and the path to become a maternal community provider should be accessible to anyone who desires to pursue that role.

non discrimination

Education without constraints 

​The HC Midwifery Institute and all of our staff are committed to the elimination of discrimination, discriminatory harassment, and to the provision of equal opportunity for all. We prohibit discrimination against and harassment of any employee, student or preceptor based on race, color, national or ethnic origin, ability, religion, marital status, sex, age, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, economic status, formal education, language, citizenship status, veteran status, genetic and/or ancestry information, political affiliation or other identities, including those characteristics protected under applicable federal or state law. A key objective of HCMI is the creation and maintenance of a positive atmosphere of non-discrimination in all aspects of interaction at HCMI. 

equity in education

Picture
HCMI offers flexible distance programs to meet the unique needs of students and preceptors. Students create an education plan that allows them to stay in their own communities or travel to other cities. HCMI’s academic and clinical programs result in either a certificate or in a clear designation of CPM. Students may enroll throughout the year, take breaks, or start with a full load of class and an anticipated finish time of two years. Relevant transfer credits are accepted from accredited colleges and students may apply to waive certain course for life experience. 

Across the country we have unequal opportunities and unequal outcomes in both our education system and our maternity care system. Our dedication to educational equity means we are working to overcome the historical legacy of discrimination, marginalization, and underinvestment that disadvantages specific groups of people, especially those defined by race. This means we provide support to students tailored to the specific needs of students not merely providing the same experience to all students.  HCMI is committed to creating transformational learning communities fiercely committed to educational equity and excellence. For more on equity in education see our equity statement.
