Postpartum Allies for Local Support (PALS) is a non-profit dedicated to providing postpartum support within the first six months. We believe in the practices and traditions of Indigenous peoples by supporting families with a network of compassionate and skilled individuals who are eager to care for them. From birth workers and lactation specialists to chefs, bodyworkers, and even dog walkers—our village is made up of PALS ready to lend a hand.

In today’s fast-paced world, postpartum parents often find themselves isolated and overwhelmed. But it doesn’t have to be this way. By embracing the wisdom of our ancestors and coming together as a community, we can create a support system that ensures every family in Sacramento and beyond receives the care and resources they need to thrive.

Families receive meals through three pathways: volunteers who cook and deliver at no cost, PALS funded grocery runs, and PALS prepared meals made and delivered directly by our team. This flexible model ensures our families are nourished with warm food, care, and community during the postpartum season.
Pals
Our 100+ volunteers, “PALS” are bringing hands-on care directly into the home, removing the barriers that keep families from getting the support they deserve. Our volunteers & practitioners offer home resets, baby holding, grocery runs, errands, nourishing meals, and in-home services like bodywork and lactation consulting. Every visit is designed to lighten the load & make postpartum care accessible, personal, and deeply supportive.
