Black birthing individuals experience perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) at nearly twice the rate of White women. This training will equip clinicians and others working with Black birthing individuals and families to provide culturally sensitive, respectful and mindful care. Explore your own self-awareness as a practitioner and receive expert training in symptom presentation, physiology and epigenetics, screening tools and treatment considerations. Understand the systems which perpetuate trauma in the Black community through the Black birthing experience in particular, and the tools to advocate for your clients as they navigate the perinatal period, their own mental health and a healthcare system that has contributed to inequities and negative birth and health outcomes for Black women and families.
