Active substance
Trauma-informed preventive intervention (behavioral program including psychoeducation, emotional support, coping skills, and social support facilitation)
What this could lead to
If effective, this program could offer a practical, low-cost way to prevent postpartum depression in women living in disaster-affected areas.
