Personalized guide for supportive emotional well-being
Recent research, involving hundreds of pregnant and parenting women across the nation, revealed significant gaps in pre- and post-partum care, particularly in addressing complex mental health needs. Despite the critical importance of emotional well- being for mothers, the current healthcare system often falls short, offering minimal resources to support them fully during this pivotal period.
Virginia Commonwealth University researchers have developed the "Thrive Guide" in response to the insights gained from this research. This personalized plan is designed to enhance emotional well-being and compliment traditional birth plans.
