Target:
Pregnant women in rural Nigeria
What We Offer: Safe, community-based support groups led by trained facilitators, focusing on maternal mental health, self-care, parenting, and stress relief.
Why It Matters:
Maternal mental health challenges, like postpartum depression, are often overlooked in rural areas. Our groups provide emotional support, reduce isolation, and connect women to health services.
What You Get:
- Weekly sessions for 10–20 women per group, held in accessible venues like health centers or churches.
- Practical tools like PHQ-9 screenings to monitor mental health.
- Refreshments and transportation support to ensure attendance.
- Referrals to local health services for severe cases.
How It Works:
- Month 1: Partner with health centers to identify 50–100 participants.
- Month 2: Train facilitators and launch 4–6 support groups.
- Month 3: Monitor outcomes and share impact reports with stakeholders.
