SUMMARY:Addressing Maternal Suicide:  Public Health Challenges and Community Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Conference\nThis conference is intended to provide participants with a deeper understanding of the multifaceted challenges surrounding maternal mental health and suicide\, as well as practical tools and strategies to make a meaningful impact in their communities. \nTarget Audience: Nurses\, physicians\, social workers\, community health workers\, and other related healthcare professionals \nFEATURED PRESENTATIONS\n Perinatal Mental Health: Challenges and Solutions with Catherine E. Monk\, Ph.D\nThis session will discuss two interrelated topics and their implications for clinical intervention: (1) parents’ prenatal impact on children’s brain-behavior development and (2) parents’ own psychosocial needs during the perinatal period\, a time of immense change and neuroplasticity. Drawing on decades of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease research highlighting the prenatal beginnings of future health and new studies on the transition to parenthood describing adult development from pregnancy to early postpartum\, we will propose that\, similar to pediatrics\, the integration of new education and intervention strategies into the prenatal care ecosystem could improve child cognitive and social-emotional development as well as parental mental health. We envision an enhanced prenatal care ecosystem to promote optimal beginnings for the whole family. \nScreening and Interventions for Perinatal Mental Health with Crystal Clark\, M.D.\, M.Sc.\nThis session will educate participants and provide practical clinical information on screening and interventions in perinatal mental health. In this session\, the most evidence-based tools for screening depression and anxiety\, and when best to complete screening will be discussed. Additionally\, attendees will gain insights into both standard and novel treatment approaches\, including culturally sensitive strategies to enhance patient care. \n  \nSupporting Families: Building Community-Based Networks with Nneka Symister\, LCSW\nThis session will explore the critical role that community-driven initiatives play in preventing maternal suicide and supporting families facing maternal mental health challenges. The presentation will provide an in-depth look at how localized networks—composed of healthcare professionals\, mental health providers\, social workers\, faith-based organizations\, and community members—can effectively collaborate to create safe and supportive environments for families. The session will highlight key stakeholders in community health\, share strategies for engaging families in these networks\, and offer tools for implementing evidence-based\, sustainable approaches that empower families. \nLearning Outcome: Upon completion of the program\, 85% of learners will report intent to incorporate information presented into their professional practice. \nDisclosure/Commercial Support: The planners and speakers do not have any conflicts of interest to report for this activity. There is no commercial support for this activity. \nContinuing Nursing Education Contact Hours: The maximum number of hours awarded for this Continuing Nursing Education activity is 4.0 contact hours.

DESCRIPTION:Family Connects NJ\, a program funded by the New Jersey Department of Children and Families\, is a new program that connects parents with a specially trained nurse for a personalized follow-up visit at home within the first two weeks after their child’s birth. Visits are offered to all families at no cost\, regardless of income\, insurance or immigration status.  By 2027\, all New Jersey residents will be eligible for this innovative program.  Partnership for Maternal and Child Health of Northern New Jersey staff will discuss the Family Connects NJ Program in northern New Jersey. Since January 2024\, the program has supported birthing families across Essex County.  This webinar will highlight the program goals and outcomes and share how healthcare professionals can refer families as the initiative expands to Bergen\, Hudson\, Passaic\, and Sussex counties in 2025.  This webinar is for healthcare professionals.
