Mothers' Mental Health Toolkit

Enhance your maternal mental health literacy at this online event

Often you are the first point of contact for a mother struggling with their mental health.  This workshop will enhance your mental health literacy, provide a guide for the promotion of mental wellness for mothers, and promote practices that build resiliency and a strong network of community supports.

​

The valuable toolkit is a workbook-style resource that will increase maternal mental health knowledge, skills, and confidence among those working with mothers and families.

This toolkit and workshop will:

• enhance your mental health literacy,

• provide you with a guide for promoting mental wellness for mothers,

• teach tools and techniques to help you prevent mental health issues,

• help you recognize the risks and signs of possible mental illness,

• help you guide women and their families—and other people supporting them—to understand and access assessment and treatment services, and

• enhance your knowledge of community responses and support that encourage recovery and decrease stigma.

​

This toolkit will equip front-line community support workers with tools specific to supporting parenting at the neighbourhood level. It is not comprehensive mental health education or a treatment manual and is not intended as a replacement for mental health assessment or services.
