About Moms Matter

Welcome to Moms Matter, the HAS Postpartum Depression Program blog and resource site. Moms Matter offers information and advocacy for women struggling with postpartum mood disorders. We provide facts and education about postpartum depression (PPD), links to PPD resources throughout Illinois, and ongoing information about HAS PPD programming. We hope to be a resource not only for moms, but for those who care about them, including families, PPD advocates, and PPD professionals. Moms Matter offers updates on PPD research and media coverage, as well as PPD program news including program changes, trainings, groups, and special events. We hope the information provided on Moms Matter is helpful to you, but this page is not meant to replace professional treatment. If you think you may be struggling with a Perinatal Mood Disorder, please seek assistance from a qualified mental health care provider. If you have questions about PPD or about the HAS program, call 773-292-4242 or go to the PPD webpage. Thanks for visiting!
