The Maternity Coalition (MC) is Australia's peak consumer advocacy organisation for women and their families using maternity care services.

Maternity Coalition (MC) has branches in every state with individual members across Australia. As an umbrella organisation we also have many group members (eg local pregnancy and parenting support groups) and as such represent thousands of families Australia-wide. We aim to achieve beneficial changes to birthing services through effective lobbying, networking and support.

If your local maternity unit has closed, or you are having difficulty finding care that meets your needs (eg. a midwife for a homebirth or a place in a birth centre, support for vaginal birth after caesarean (VBAC)) etc. visit our webpage and contact a local branch today! Visit our campaign update page to see what mums, dads, midwives and other maternity care providers are doing to improve maternity services for all Australians - www.maternitycoalition.org.au.
