R4C developed out of Centro Hispano of Dane County as a unique entity focused on maternal and child health and social entrepreneurship. The Coope is as a model of liberation to the ethnically rich Latinx and Indigenous communities in Dane County. R4C came to life through Centro's Programa Bienestar (Wellness Program) which invested in the training and support of promaturas/doulas from the community.
The promotoras created R4C, an independant co-op in 2018, in order to increase their financial sustainability and embark in a social entrepreneurship model. R4C aims to provide community-based wellness services consistent with their mission of grassroots social justice, health equity, and community engagement work. The co-op's goal is to reduce disparities by race/ethnicity, immigration or residency status, gender identity, class, and other categories in maternal and child health. |
To see an example of the work of the promotoras, see this video on a post-partum program led by the promotoras in partnership with Centro and funded by the Wisconsin Partnership Program.
