"Is MOM Ok?"
campaign

 

The "Is Mom Ok?" maternal suicide awareness and prevention campaign is dedicated to raising awareness about maternal suicide and empowering communities to support new mothers' mental health.

 

Maternal suicide is a devastating yet preventable tragedy, and this campaign aims to break the silence surrounding perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs), end the stigma and provide resources for those who need them. Founded in 2024 by Cherished Mom, we were able to reach 1.2 million people with the help of our sponsors and partners.

 

Sponsor or partner this annual campaign as we strive to end maternal suicide.
