Open Access Funding

The AABC Foundation will consider requests for funding to make a research article “open access” in a journal that has accepted their article for publishing, or that the author anticipates will be accepted. The article should relate to the birth center model of care. Proposals will be accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year. Review and approval can take 2-3 months. Funds will be paid directly to the journal, or a receipt may be submitted for reimbursement. See our past Research Funding.

Proposals for funding should include:

  • Primary contact name, email, phone, address

  • Article title

  • Article summary

  • Journal where it will be published

  • Publication date

  • Authors

  • Cost of open access

  • Amount of funding requested

  • Other sources of funding (if applicable) – applied for or received

  • How does the easy accessibility of the research benefit the advancement of the birth center model?
