About Imagine Me
Imagine Me: Living beyond My Barriers conference will address perinatal mental health complexities in diverse cultures. This conference is that first of its kind. 1 in 5 women suffer from perinatal depression or anxiety. Black, Hispanic, Native American, and other non-white women suffer disproportionately to white women. Most conferences speak to and about white women. This conference is different. If we want women of color to be well, we must talk about, learn from, and work for women of color. This conference is for us and by us.
