Arrow Sign my Petition!

Hi everyone!

After fifteen years successfully operating, William Osler Health Center in Brampton, Ontario has shut down it's volunteer doula program. To protest this decision, I have set up an online petition to the CEO. If you would be so kind as to sign it, the women and doulas of Brampton would be grateful!
