World Maternal Mental Health Week:
May 4th-10th 2026
We focus on perinatal mental health this week for the millions navigating the difficult journey through fertility, loss, pregnancy and parenthood. Here at home in NL, 28% of women and birthing parents have identified struggling during their pregnancy and postpartum. These rates are higher than the national average of 23%.
Let's start here and now to make changes so that our generations can be healthy for years to come.
