Mama Shine
Developing a Virtual Peer Support Group for Mothers Who Have Experienced Stressful Life Events
The purpose of this study is to conduct focus groups with mothers and mental health providers to inform the development of a mental health intervention called “Mama Shine.” Mama Shine will be a new treatment program for mothers who have experienced stressful life events and who are raising toddler and preschool-aged children.
For the first round of focus groups, we focused on recruiting:
-
Mothers living in the Baltimore metropolitan area who experienced certain stressful life events and who have a child between the ages of 2-5.
-
Mental Health Providers who provide services to mothers living in the Baltimore metropolitan area who are coping with stressful life events.
​​
We just completed recruitment for this focus group study and look forward to sharing results in the future!
