It's Early Childhood Mental Health Awareness Month, and we want to shed light on the direct connection between maternal mental health and children's mental health. Research shows that when maternal mental health suffers, there is a generational impact felt by the children. Congress cannot ignore this issue. Funding maternal mental health programs and improving access to paid family leave, postpartum medicare coverage, and other services proven to support maternal health is CRITICAL to help our nation's mothers and families as a whole. Learn more about maternal mental health with our newly updated Fact Sheet! https://hubs.la/Q027GQqt0

The NHS in England spent £14.9 billion on mental health services in 2021/22 - 13.8% of local NHS funding allocations 😯 This equated to a total of 3.25 million people accessing NHS mental health, learning disability and autism services in the same year. Today is World Mental Health Day and this years theme aims to place mental health in a human rights framework to re-cast the aspiration for sound mental health as a fundamental “universal”human right. Before we can do that, it might be useful for us to shine a light on some of the existing societal Inequalities that prevent this from becoming a reality 🤷🏾♂️ Follow the link in the comment section to learn more and watch the full video as we observe and celebrate World Mental Health Day 2023 🤘🏾🎬 #worldmentalhealthday2023 #workplacementalhealth #employeewellbeing

🌸 Black Maternal Mental Health Week 🌸 At Relinquish & Transcend Counseling + Consulting, we are dedicated to supporting and uplifting Black mothers. This week is all about raising awareness, breaking the silence, and advocating for the mental health needs of Black mothers. 🖤✨ Did you know? • Black women are 3-4 times more likely to experience pregnancy-related complications than white women. • Nearly 40% of Black women report symptoms of postpartum depression, yet only about 5% receive treatment. • Systemic barriers, including racial bias in healthcare, contribute significantly to the mental health challenges faced by Black mothers. Black mothers often face unique challenges, but you don’t have to navigate them alone. Our holistic approach ensures that you receive the compassionate care and support you deserve. Join us in honoring Black Maternal Mental Health Week by sharing your stories, educating yourself and others, and reaching out for support.
