Medical Students Supporting Expecting Parents (MSSEP)’s mission is to offer longitudinal emotional and social support to expecting parents as they go through the prenatal, childbirth, and postnatal periods. This is not a shadowing experience, but an opportunity to make a very real connection with a patient during an important time in their life and to support them through their childbirth process. Students have the opportunity to be paired with an expecting parent, attend their appointments and live birth, as well as attend a series of noon talks that discuss topics relevant to our mission.
