ICAN Professionals

These are a group of local professionals who support ICAN of the Capital District and our mission. We are ever so grateful for their ongoing support.

ICAN has educated me on my rights and the choices I can make in delivery. The leaders and fellow meeting attendants helped me to realize my first birth should not have gone the way it did, and have helped me to heal emotionally from it.
