A Guide to Pregnancy and Early Parenting Resources
AIMHiTN is dedicated to supporting mental health during the crucial perinatal and postpartum stages. Acknowledging the
necessity to address racial disparities, we prioritize equality in mental health care, and our specialized resource page reflects
this commitment. This platform serves as a carefully assembled hub, offering a range of critical resources such as educational
materials, links to therapeutic programs, connections to specialized professionals, diversity resources, and crisis support. We
encourage you to explore these resources and also watch our impactful video, available in both English and Spanish, that
further illuminates the importance of perinatal and postpartum mental health support
