Perinatal Mental Health Toolkit (Healthy Human Development Table)

The Perinatal Mental Health Toolkit was developed by the Healthy Human Development Table (HHDT) to build capacity and advance practice among public health units (PHUs).

Guided by a situational assessment, the Toolkit's five modules can be tailored to help PHU management and planners who work in areas related to perinatal mental health (e.g. mental health, reproductive health, maternal health, family health):

  • plan and deliver comprehensive, evidence-based and best practice approaches
  • guide public health policy and practice planning and decision-making

The Toolkit also provides valuable information for front-line staff who deliver perinatal mental health services.
