Welcome to our newest Hesperiana!

We are excited to announce the newest member of the Hesperian family: Sacha Rain Conant who was delivered in a water birth at her home in Berkeley, CA. Sacha's parents, Kristen Graser and Jeff Conant, along with the support of midwives welcomed her on December 31, 2007.

Kristen is a midwife herself and a contributor to the revised edition of A Book for Midwives, and Jeff is completing work on A Community Guide to Environmental Health, which will be published this spring.
