Mental health conditions are among the most common medical
complications during pregnancy, and suicide and overdose are among the
leading causes of death for postpartum individuals. However, pregnant
and postpartum individuals often do not receive needed treatment.

This has negative long-term consequences not only for the parent, but
also for their child and families. Research has found that parental
mental health and substance use disorders increase children's
risk for early symptoms of behavioral problems and subsequent
substance use.

H.R. 7073), which would reauthorize and expand an existing screening
and treatment program for maternal mental health conditions and
substance use disorders and provide continued funding for the Maternal
Mental Health Hotline, a 24/7 program operated by health care
professionals trained to help pregnant or postpartum individuals and
family members affected by maternal mental health and substance use
disorders.

This bill would help ensure pregnant and parenting individuals, as
well as their families, receive critical support.
