PPD affects the entire family. We invite the Dad’s to join us in order to better understand postpartum difficulties and depression. Dads will learn strategies that can help Mom feel better. Getting better—getting through it stronger than before. Relationship and communication tools will be discussed.
This program is limited to 10 Dads and is facilitated by Jory & Amanda McMillian, who have experienced PPD and will share how to effectively move through this.
