SERVICE OVERVIEW

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EMOTIONAL WELLBEING

Mental Health Screenings provide a confidential opportunity for mothers to check in about their emotional well-being during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Screenings can help identify symptoms or concerns related to maternal mental health and provide information about available support. When additional care may be helpful, participants can receive appropriate referrals to mental health providers and community resources. The goal is to make it easier for mothers to understand their experiences and know where to turn for support. Confidential screenings provide a safe and supportive starting point without judgment. By identifying concerns early and connecting mothers with appropriate resources, this service helps promote emotional well-being and encourages mothers to access the care and support they may need throughout pregnancy and postpartum.

Mental Health services are free, judgment-free, and tailored to each family's unique needs. Reaching out is the first step toward healing and support.
