🌟 Collaboration in Action! 🌟
We’re thrilled to share a behind-the-scenes win that’s making a big impact! Through our partnership, Global Communities Healthy Start and Whole Mind Wellness teamed up to fund PSI certification in Perinatal Mood & Anxiety Disorders (PMADs) for 5 amazing clinicians. 💪🧠
Why does this matter? Because it means more culturally responsive, high-quality mental health care for pregnant, postpartum, and parenting families—especially in BIPOC communities. 💛
This is what systems change looks like: investing in people, removing barriers (like upfront costs!), and building strong, equity-driven partnerships. Thanks Whole Mind Wellness, we are glad to work in partnership with you!

This month, we honor the strength, resilience, and love of mothers—especially those who have experienced the heartbreak of pregnancy loss.
Too often, Black parents face this grief in silence, compounded by disparities in care and lack of culturally affirming support. Let’s change that.
✨Support looks like:
Listening without judgment
Creating safe spaces for grief and healing
Advocating for equitable maternal health care
Uplifting community-based resources led by and for Black families

To every parent who has carried love and loss—we see you, we honor you, and we walk with you.
