Conversations about su***de are especially important during pregnancy and postpartum (times of enormous emotional, physical, and social change).

In 2022, 13.2% of pregnancy-related deaths were attributed to su***de, and the CDC estimates that more than 80% of pregnancy-related deaths are preventable.

These statistics are heartbreaking, but they also offer hope that prevention is possible.

Su***de prevention is maternal health care. It starts with creating spaces where parents can say, “I’m struggling,” without shame. Here at the Willow Collective, we aim to meet that honesty with compassion, connection, and meaningful support.

You don't have to wait until you're in crisis to deserve help.

If you or someone you love is struggling, call or text 988. Pregnant and postpartum parents can also call or text the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-TLC-MAMA (1-833-852-6262), available 24/7.

Dolly Parton’s generosity has touched countless lives, and her Imagination Library is one beautiful example of that legacy. Through the program, children from birth to age 5 can receive a free, age-appropriate book delivered to their home each month - helping families build a love of reading and create meaningful moments of connection together.

As we remember and celebrate Dolly’s life and the tremendous generosity she shared with children and families, we’re grateful for programs like this that continue to make a difference.

Need help signing your child up for the Imagination Library? We’d love to help! If you have questions or aren’t sure how to enroll, reach out to us. We’re happy to help your family access resource.

Thank you, Dolly, for believing that every child deserves the opportunity to dream, learn, and imagine.

We'd like to say a great big thank you to all the folks at Jimmy John's on JFK in Fort Collins (4515 John F. Kennedy Pkwy, Fort Collins, CO).

They have so generously helped to provide delicious meals for Nurturing Connections, our evening postpartum support group. This group helps moms with infants connect with one another, address postpartum mental health symptoms, and strengthen their relationship with their baby.

Thank you, Jimmy John's !

Mary Beth is next up in our "Toys to Tools" series! When she was young, Mary Beth loved baby dolls. Today, she uses baby dolls in her work!

For Mary Beth, gently holding a bundled doll while a child looks on, and saying things like, "I'm going to rock my baby so gently because she is scared" or "I'm going to hold him so close so he knows I will always protect him" or "My baby is hungry, so I am going to make sure he has a full tummy" helps children who may have some unmet nurturing needs to aborb a little something by osmosis.
