Filter by:Postpartum depression (PPD) is associated with significant health consequences for mothers and children, and the current COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the mental health of particularly vulnerable populations including pregnant Black and Latina women. There is an urgent need for evidence-based, accessible, and scalable mental health care options for these high-risk, vulnerable women. This study aims to: (a) compare the effectiveness of two digitally-delivered self-paced stress reduction programs in pregnant Black and Latina women at increased risk of PPD; and (b) examine barriers and facilitators to implementation within a large healthcare system.
This study will provide high-quality, representative data on the capacity of Elevating Voices, Addressing Depression, Toxic Stress and Equity in Group Prenatal Care (EleVATE GC) to reduce perinatal depression, preterm birth, and low birthweight in African-American women. If findings from this study indicate that EleVATE GC is feasible and effective, this model could be implemented nationwide to help achieve mental and obstetric health parity for low-income women of color in the United States.
