Founded in 2011 as the California Maternal Mental Health Collaborative
After launching the national “2020 Mom Project” (which explained a path forward with easy action steps hospitals, providers and payers could take) and being referred to as the 2020 Mom Project, the Collaborative changed its name to “2020 Mom,” maintaining its focus on multi-stakeholder engagement and policy as a lever for change and laying a path forward for the entire country. Our aim was to shine a light on the problem, change the narrative from calling the range of disorders “postpartum depression” to “Maternal Mental Health Disorders” and identify the barriers and solutions together with multiple stakeholders.
