The event page describes the mission of BC Women’s Health Foundation to improve mental health care for women in British Columbia. It highlights that nearly one in four new mothers in BC experience postpartum depression or anxiety, that almost half of women in BC reported a decline in mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic, and that more than 40% of women did not receive the mental health support they needed. Programs noted on the event page include reproductive mental health services, care for endometriosis and pelvic pain, and menopause and midlife women’s health. The foundation also plans a mental health unit where mothers could be admitted with their babies.
