Movin' with Mommas

Movin' with Mommas is a virtual dance series aimed at promoting maternal mental health. This collaboration between FSU COM AIM and the Orlando Ballet brings accessible movement to homes all across the nation. These videos have been curated for moms to do specifically with babies in their baby carriers.

About 75-85% of moms experience postpartum blues and 10-15% of these women end up developing postpartum depression. Research shows that exercise can have a positive impact on maternal mental health. Hence, we have brought the exercise to you and your home in a fun and convenient fashion!

The Hotline will launch in early 2022 and will be available 24/7, 365 days a year, providing services in English and Spanish via voice, text, and webchat. This will be an excellent resource for those suffering from maternal mental health conditions and will be a great addition to the ongoing work that PSI and other organizations do to provide services to birthing people and their families.

Congratulations, PSI!

Florida BH IMPACT - September News

Sep 28, 2021

September is suicide prevention awareness month. Florida BH IMPACT has included resources and guides in the September newsletter to help clinicians and those who may be suffering. Click here to read the September newsletter.

 

This month, mental health advocates, prevention organizations, survivors, allies, and community members came together to promote suicide prevention awareness. Check out the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline website for more resources and information. Risk factors for suicide include mental disorders, particularly mood disorders, schizophrenia, anxiety disorders and certain personality disorders, alcohol and other substance use disorders, a history of trauma or abuse, and more. Effective clinical care for mental, physical and substance use disorders, easy access to a variety of clinical interventions, strong connections to family and community support, and support through ongoing medical and mental health care relationships can make it less likely that individuals will consider, attempt, or die by suicide. Read more about risk and protective factors here. Click here for resources for suicide loss survivors.
