We are using community training opportunities to disseminate messaging from the Shared Message Bank and teach diverse audiences about how they can use the messages to effectively advocate for change in policy.

Health and Envrionment (CDPHE)
The building blocks of a healthy pregnancy and birth consist of emotional and mental health as well as physical health care. The benefits of maternal wellness during and after pregnancy include a high quality of life and maternal functioning for mothers, babies being born on time and with healthy weights, strong mother-baby attachment; and healthy, happy and productive families. Good mental health in pregnant women and new mothers also promotes young children’s development, healthy social relationships, and success in school and life!
