May is Maternal Mental Health Awareness Month

Between 15-20 percent of new moms experience postpartum depression and anxiety; if left untreated, this can cause lasting negative health effects on the mom and the child. The month of May recognizes Maternal Mental Health Awareness. In honor of maternal mental health, we have compiled a list of our favorite resources that includes both local and national resources for maternal mental health. One resource in particular is PSI Utah; this is likely the most comprehensive resource page for maternal mental health in Utah. Includes hotlines/warmlines, treatment facilities, childcare services, support groups, and resources for fathers, adoptions, and doulas among others. Here's our list of resources: https://ucebt.com/resources/maternal
