May is both National Women’s Health Month and Mental Health Awareness Month. 💚

This month is a reminder that mental wellness is essential to overall health and well-being. Women often juggle many responsibilities while putting their own needs last, but taking care of your emotional health matters, too.

✨ Prioritize rest and healthy routines
✨ Stay connected with supportive people
✨ Make time to recharge
✨ Build healthy habits for mental well-being
✨ Ask for support when needed

Together, let’s continue building healthier and more supportive communities through awareness, education, and connection.

You are not alone. MAHA is here to support.

🌸 NATIONAL WOMEN’S HEALTH MONTH 🌸

Caring for Every Mother. Protecting Every New Life.

This Women’s Health Month, we highlight the importance of supporting women’s physical, emotional, and mental health at every stage of life, especially during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. 💜

The MAHA Birth Equity Project is dedicated to promoting equitable, culturally sensitive, and compassionate care for prenatal and postpartum women within our community. Every mother or mother-to-be should have access to quality care and support to foster a healthier future.

✨ Through the Birth Equity Project, we provide support and services such as:
🤱 Pregnancy & Maternal Care
• Free pregnancy testing
• Educational workshops
• Maternal health support

🥗 Food & Nutrition Support
• WIC enrollment referrals
• Nutritional support resources
• Food Pantry

🧠 Mental Health & Wellness

• Emotional wellness resources

🏥 Community Resources
• All Kids application assistance
• OB/GYN recommendations
• Parent support groups

Women’s health is more than healthcare. It includes emotional wellness, access to support, healthy communities, and feeling seen, heard, and cared for.

We’re proud to recognize the cultures, contributions, and leadership of Pan-Asian communities and to continue fostering a workplace where every voice is valued.
