CAI developed this free training package for supervisors of community health workers to deliver to their staff to increase confidence and skills needed to recognize and respond to maternal depression.

The training will bolster the ability of a non-clinical, community-based workforce to use existing strong relationships to support and educate clients with maternal depression to increase awareness and reduce stigma. Supervisors can deliver this training at their own pace for their staff to build skills such as:

  • Engaging and building rapport with pregnancy and parenting clients
  • Acknowledging hesitations of clients to seek mental health services
  • Addressing red flags for maternal depression
