The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) celebrated Mental Health Awareness Month this May by highlighting some of their services available to families. 

This includes the new Moms.gov website, developed in partnership with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. The website is designed to connect new and expecting mothers with trusted information and resources to support their wellbeing. 

Additionally, HRSA recently celebrated the fourth anniversary of the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline, which offers free counseling support for pregnant and postpartum women by call, text, and chat. Since launching on Mother’s Day in 2022, the Hotline has supported more than 100,000 people.

Health care providers are encouraged to share these resources with patients, partners, and communities to further support the wellbeing of mothers and families.
