I’m Rebecca Benghiat, the Executive Director of the New Space for Women’s Health, a nonprofit opening the only independent birth and women’s health center in New York City. In a city where you can find anything at any hour (and have it delivered to your doorstep) there’s isn’t birth center. Crazy? Totally.
The New Space is changing maternity care by being, not bucking, the system. We’re creating safe, healthy, inclusive, sustainable care in a city that demands nothing less, and I’m thrilled to share the ride.
