Let your voice be heard:
On Thursday, November 15, 2007 from 12 noon until 1:30 PM, Pennsylvania Perinatal Partnership is sponsoring a free audio conference entitled Perinatal Depression: Diagnosis, Treatment and Family Impact.
During pregnancy and after delivery, up to 85% of pregnant women and new mothers experience mood changes and anxiety that resolve within a few weeks after delivery. However, about 1 in 7 new mothers experience depression that seriously impairs their ability to function. Screening and treatment are crucial to reduce the risks to both the mother and her children. This audio conference is designed to give mental health practitioners caring for pregnant and post-partum women the tools they need to deal more confidently with this important issue.
Registration and additional details.
