New, FREE resource for healthcare providers, perinatal professionals
If you are a healthcare provider or other professional who works with pregnant women or new moms, you shoud know about this resource:
Thanks to an HRSA grant-funded program, you can call a toll-free number for a NO COST consultation on your questions related to the diagnosis and treatment of perinatal depression. The Perinatal Consultation Service provides this free helpline, staffed by consultants who are psychiatrists in the Women's Mental Health Program at the University of Illinois at Chicago - all of whom are experts in perinatal depression. All you have to do is pick up the phone and dial 1.800.573.6121.

Thank you for passing along info about this resource. I am a mother, childbirth educator and doula in Chicago with hopes of one day going back to school to work in the perinatal mental health field. I look forward to finding out more.

Do you really think this is new thing? Your blog is really good to me, I read it to get useful info, but sometimes I'm bored to tears.
