KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In its ongoing effort to provide support to parents, raise awareness about perinatal mental health disorders (PMHDs), and educate health professionals, nonprofit Postpartum Support International (PSI) is hosting its 36th annual conference June 28 to July 2 in Kansas City, Mo. Research shows postpartum depression and other PMHDs, including anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, bipolar disorder, and psychosis, affects 800,000 people a year, yet only 25% of them receive treatment and many parents are unaware that what they are experiencing is normal and treatable.

Key Points: 
  • "I experienced a perinatal mental health disorder in 1994 after my son was born, and it is really inspiring to see how far we've come since then—to witness the effort, intelligence, and enthusiasm that are part of this conference and are critical to the perinatal mental health field."
  • It's imperative that we break the stigma that is often associated with perinatal mental health disorders for both mothers and fathers.
  • Proceeds from donations and sponsorship will benefit Kansas City's Whole Parent Foundation , which promotes the mental health and well-being of all mothers, birthing persons, partners, and support systems in the Kansas City area.
  • PSI facilitates more than 30 virtual support groups including those for military families, fathers, LGBTQIA+ families, Spanish speakers, and more.
