The Carleton Advocacy Network of Doulas (CAN-DO) Manage

Our History: With prior experience working as birth doulas and in abortion settings, Rinya Kamber and Sarina Chaiken (with the help of other resources) were able to train new doulas to physically, emotionally, and informationally support patients. The first abortion doula training was in spring of 2016. In fall of 2016, CANDO formed a partnership with Whole Woman’s Health of the Twin Cities and coordinated a second comprehensive doula training. By November 2016, CAN-DO doulas were in clinic, supporting people during abortion procedures. Another training will be done in Winter 2016. Our Goals: 1) Abortion Doula Volunteers: Sustain and expand our pool of abortion doula volunteers who work at a Whole Woman's Health in the Twin Cities, providing direct support to patients choosing abortion. Everybody deserves support when vulnerable. Our goal is to ensure that all people choosing abortion will have equal access to quality doula support. We will provide care to anyone who seeks it, which may include people from Carleton, Northfield, and greater Minnesotan communities. 2) Community Awareness: Create a sustainable chain reaction of positive change by increasing the number of reproductive justice advocates in the community. The positive outcome of this effort is the creation of more accurately informed, trustworthy, approachable, and nonjudgmental people in the world. As students graduate, this knowledge can permeate into a wide array of settings. CAN-DO will continue to educate all interested community members, including those who do not wish to become in-clinic doulas.

If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error." - John Stuart Mill

Divest Carleton Manage

Divest Carleton aims to change the way the public, governments, and investors view fossil fuel companies in order to create a political atmosphere where large-scale climate action is possible. In an effort to achieve this, Divest Carleton calls upon Carleton College to remove its direct holdings in the top 200 fossil fuel companies. Continuing to hold fossil fuel stocks is a tacit statement of support for the industry’s extractive practices, political agenda, and egregious misinformation campaigns. Divest Carleton works to change public sentiment about the fossil fuel industry and to bring attention to the disproportionate impact that climate change has on marginalized communities. By joining the more than 60 educational institutions that have committed to fossil fuel divestment, Carleton can work to uphold its institutional values and become a true leader in the transition towards a sustainable future.

To our knowledge, there does not exist another nationally distributed undergraduate magazine of politics and culture. Our bi-yearly publication also allows for a long, focused editorial process, giving writers, editors and designers the opportunity to plunge in-depth into long form journalism.
