About
Postpartum depression (PPD) is associated with significant health consequences for mothers and children, and the current COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the mental health of particularly vulnerable populations including pregnant Black and Latina women. There is an urgent need for evidence-based, accessible, and scalable mental health care options for these high-risk, vulnerable women. This study aims to: (a) compare the effectiveness of two digitally-delivered self-paced stress reduction programs in pregnant Black and Latina women at increased risk of PPD; and (b) examine barriers and facilitators to implementation within a large healthcare system.
