Pacific Post Partum Support Society is a small, non-profit charitable organization that has been providing mental health and emotional support to new parents and families since 1971. The program started as a grass roots initiative when a small group of mothers began meeting at the Vancouver Crisis Line office to share their experiences and support each other.At the time, our peer support model of care was a new approach to addressing the issues of postpartum depression, and is one that has since influenced changes in postpartum support. Over the years, our programs have expanded and shifted based on the needs of the communities we serve.No referral necessary: you can self-refer to all of our services
Our main forms of support include telephone, text, and small group support. We also occasionally offer partner information sessions, couple’s sessions, and informational webinars. If you are interested in information about our community trainings, please see our page for care providers.
