Initiative Seeks to Expand Perinatal and Infant Mental Health Services in Michigan

Providers who serve pregnant people, infants and families are encouraged to complete a brief survey to help build Michigan’s first statewide Perinatal and Infant Early Childhood Mental Health (PIECMH) Provider Directory. The initiative is led by the Michigan Council for Maternal and Child Health (MCMCH) in partnership with statewide maternal and early childhood organizations.

The directory will be designed for both families and providers and hosted on the Think Babies Michigan website. It will support stronger referral pathways, make it easier for families to find services and help identify gaps in care to inform advocacy and future funding opportunities.

Members are encouraged to share this survey with colleagues who provide maternal, perinatal and infant mental health services. Additional outreach materials, including newsletter language and a flyer, are available.

Members with questions may contact Lenise Freeman at the MHA.
