Who we are

As a state chapter of Postpartum Support International, we bring parents with lived experience together with medical, mental health and allied professionals in our communities. Our mission is to support individuals and families within their childbearing and child raising years through promoting health & overall wellbeing as well as awareness, prevention, and treatment of challenging mental health experiences. 

Our vision is that every person and parent statewide will have access to information & resources, social support, and informed professional care related to the childbearing and child-raising years. PSI Utah promotes this vision through advocacy, community collaboration, education, training and social support.
