This Giving Tuesday Support Parents in Crisis with a donation to ensure PSI can continue to provide FREE support and resources to parents in crisis — especially when they need it the most. PSI has ONE goal every year: to help more parents than the year before. We strive to do this by growing our resources, training providers, and increasing access to support. As a nonprofit organization, this goal can’t be met without donors like you. Whether $1 or $10,000, every donation contributes to helping us reach, support, and save the lives of parents affected by perinatal mental health disorders. Perinatal Mental Health Conditions are the highest complication of childbearing – and often the most overlooked and stigmatized complication. Studies show that 1 in 5 perinatal individuals may experience perinatal depression or anxiety. These individuals may also experience other Perinatal Mental Health conditions like Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Bipolar, and Postpartum Psychosis. For the last 36 years, PSI has been the global champion for perinatal mental health, connecting individuals and families to the resources and support needed to give them the strongest and healthiest start possible. Help us help pregnant, postpartum, and post-loss individuals in need of support by making a donation that will fund PSI resources at https://lnkd.in/eHs8byQ4 . Make an Impact.

“The stress and mental health challenges faced by parents — just like loneliness, workplace well-being and the impact of social media on youth mental health — aren’t always visible, but they can take a steep toll. It’s time to recognize they constitute a serious public health concern for our country. Parents who feel pushed to the brink deserve more than platitudes. They need tangible support.” — U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek H. Murthy Perinatal Mental Health Conditions are the highest complication of childbearing – and often the most overlooked and stigmatized complication.
