Recently, The Midwifery Project gathered together with leaders from Oklahoma’s birthing hospitals in Norman, OK to explore midwifery integration as a strategic solution to expand maternal healthcare access, improve outcomes and strengthen the hospital workforce.

Hosted by The Midwifery Project and other stakeholders including the Oklahoma Health Care Authority and the Oklahoma Hospital Association, the symposium was an energizing day of strategy, connection and shared commitment aimed at reducing costs, addressing provider shortages and advancing care for Oklahoma families during pregnancy and childbirth.

The Midwifery Project is dedicated to building Oklahoma’s midwifery capacity and expanding access to all families. Visit The Midwifery Project - Tulsa to learn more.

Join Us for Our Virtual Founders’ Day Celebration! 🎉

On December 18, 2025, we honor the visionary leaders who established the National Black Nurses Association in 1971 and paved the way for generations of Black nurses across the nation.

This year’s theme, “Honoring Our Legacy, Igniting Our Future,” reminds us that our history fuels our progress, our purpose, and our power.

Let’s come together as a community to reflect, celebrate, and continue the legacy of excellence in nursing leadership, advocacy, and service.

Our very own Linda DeJear will be a guest speaker tomorrow at the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated Alpha Chi Omega Chapter, Tulsa, OK Breast Cancer Walk.

💗 Speaker Spotlight: Linda DeJear 💗

We’re excited to shine the spotlight on Linda DeJear, RN — Registered Nurse & Charter Member of the Eastern Oklahoma Black Nurses Association — and one of our distinguished guest speakers for this year’s Stride & Survive: The Pink Purpose Breast Cancer Awareness Walk! 🌸

Linda is a Registered Nurse with a diverse background in Infection Prevention, Post-Anesthesia Recovery, Maternal Child, Pediatrics, and Newborn Nursery Care. After retiring from Ascension St. John in August 2020, she continues to give back to the community through her service and leadership.

A proud charter member of the Eastern Oklahoma Black Nurses Association, Linda is deeply passionate about improving community health. She also serves as an ambassador for St. Monica Catholic Church in the Ascension Bedrock Initiative, promoting cardiovascular wellness in Tulsa. ❤️‍🩹

Before answering her calling to nursing, Linda spent 23+ years in Accounting with Warren Petroleum—a testament to her lifelong commitment to growth and service. When she’s not volunteering, she enjoys traveling, gardening, serving her church, and spending time with her family as a loving wife, mother, and grandmother. 💕
