These seminars provide professional development for healthcare providers supporting families affected by perinatal distress related to pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood. When participants leave each seminar, they will better understand how these topics impact families, and strengthen their knowledge and skills to help improve perinatal outcomes.
