Bloom With Usin Philadelphia
Sponsor and exhibitor opportunities for the first in-person CAPPA gathering since 2022, where doulas, lactation educators, childbirth educators, and perinatal professionals come together to connect, learn, and shape what's next for birth and family care.
Why Sponsor
Reach the people who shape the most important moments of a family's life.
CAPPA, the Childbirth and Postpartum Professional Association, has been certifying perinatal professionals for more than two decades. Our community spans five certification pathways and tens of thousands of active and student credentials.
The 2026 CAPPA Convening is our comeback event, the first in-person professional gathering CAPPA has hosted since 2022. It is hand-built to give partners real face time with the doulas, educators, and allied professionals who recommend products and services to families every day.
Partnering with us puts your brand in the room with the trusted voices, not the algorithm, that families listen to.
Direct access to a self-selected, highly engaged audience of perinatal professionals, the people who recommend your products and services to families across the U.S.
Brand exposure across CAPPA's social media, email campaigns, member community, and on-site materials before, during, and after the Convening.
Good-will buy-in from supporting CAPPA's mission to protect, train, and equip the perinatal field.
A foot in the door for 2027. The full four-day CAPPA Conference returns in 2027. 2026 partners get first right of refusal on 2027 sponsorships at preferred pricing.

Common questions from sponsors and vendors.
Sponsorships are accepted on a rolling basis through June 30, 2026. Once a tier sells out we close it and start a waitlist for next year. Goodie bag promotional materials are due by July 25, 2026.
Payment is due within 30 days of agreement or by July 1, 2026, whichever comes first. We accept ACH, check, and card. Your invoice and payment instructions are sent within one business day of confirming your tier.
Yes. Every sponsorship tier includes goodie bag placement. Send 125 of each item to make sure every attendee gets one. Materials must arrive by July 25, 2026. Shipping details are sent after you confirm your tier.
Attendance is not required, but you'll get far more out of the partnership if you or a team member is on the ground. Rooted Impact and Full Bloom tiers include 2 complimentary tickets so you can be in the room.
CAPPA is a for-profit certifying organization, so sponsorships are not tax-deductible as charitable donations. Many sponsorships qualify as a marketing or business expense. Consult your tax advisor for specifics.
We can build a multi-event package combining the 2026 Convening and the 2027 Conference at preferred pricing. Reach out via the contact form to talk through what makes sense for your organization.
Attendee contact lists are not shared, in keeping with our commitment to attendee privacy. You'll have direct access to the room through your booth, branding, speaking opportunities, and social moments at your tier level.
