Despite being the most common complication of childbirth, Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs) continue to be under-recognized, undiagnosed, untreated (although highly treatable), and stigmatized.


We work hard to change that.

Welcome, and thanks for your interest in Perinatal Mental Health!


For over 20 years, the Postpartum Health Alliance has provided awareness, education, and resources on Perinatal Mental Health. We have seen tremendous progress, but we won't rest until every parent receives the perinatal support and care they deserve.

The simple truth is, you play a vital role in the lives of new parents. Help us transform perinatal care by taking our PMADs 101 course or by becoming a trained warmline volunteer.
