Our Virtual Advocacy Day is on April 2nd. Join Us!
Join us in changing the lives of moms and families one policy at a time!
Maternal Mental Health Advocacy Day is our annual, virtual event where we bring together people from across the country to share personal stories, statistics, and solutions about maternal mental health with Members of Congress.
This event is on April 2, 2025. Register today!
This year's Advocacy Day is focused on securing continued federal funding for two maternal mental health programs:
1) The National Maternal Mental Health Hotline
Provides 24/7 voice and text resources and support to moms and families.
2) Maternal Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders Program
Provides education, consultation, and resources to healthcare providers who support mothers.
A special thank you to our Advocacy Day partners, MomsRising and Postpartum Support International!
