Centering YOU + Georgia Fund for Perinatal Mental Health
A postpartum support project helping mothers carry care beyond the therapy room and into the real moments of daily life.
For Mothers
Request your deck, learn how to use it, and share your experience if you choose.
For Providers
Learn how to introduce and use Centering YOU with Georgia Perinatal Fund clients.
Therapy is powerful, but so much of postpartum life happens between appointments: the feeding at 3 a.m., the bathroom cry, the hard conversation with a partner, the moment in the car before therapy, the day a mother realizes she has not felt like herself in months.
Centering YOU was created for those moments. Through this project, we are learning how a tangible, evidence-based card deck can support mothers, providers, and the larger maternal mental health system in Georgia.
Where Support Lives
Support does not only live in a therapy office. Sometimes it lives on a nightstand during a midnight feeding, on the bathroom mirror before the day begins, in a therapy notebook, beside a coffee cup, in a diaper bag, or on the kitchen counter where someone else can finally see what she needs.
Where Support Lives is a growing collection of how Centering YOU is being used by real families in real postpartum life.
Our goal is to share this collection publicly in 2027. Help us grow this space with your experience.
You can share a photo, a short voice note, or a written reflection. Your story does not need to be polished. A single moment can teach us something important.
Share a moment with us
These forms let mothers and providers contribute to the same campaign—but in audience-specific ways. Use any or all of the below forms to share your experience in a way that feels easy to you.
Consider these prompts:
The card that found me was…
I placed this card where…
This card helped me notice…
This card helped me ask for…
One thing I want another postpartum mother to know is…
Leave a Voice Note
Open the Voice Memos or recording app on your phone and record a short reflection. Save the recording, then upload the audio file here. A minute or two is plenty.
Share in the way that feels easiest.
Take a photo, record a voice memo on your phone and upload it here, or write a few sentences below. Choose one or share more than one—there is no need to make it polished.
Upload a Photo
Show us where your card lives. Take a photo of your card wherever it has found a place, in your home, your bag, your car, or somewhere else—and upload it here.
Write a Reflection
Write a few sentences about a card that stayed with you, helped you notice something, or helped you ask for support.
Provider Field Notes
Send us a Message
Providers are invited to share where the deck lived in the clinical process: opening a session, closing a session, supporting between-session care, helping a mother name a need, inviting partner communication, or helping identify when more support was needed.
Project feedback
Your feedback helps us understand how Centering YOU is being used, what is helpful, and what could be improved.
Tell us what using the deck has been like—including what was helpful, what didn’t fit, or what made it difficult to use.
Completing this survey is your choice. You can receive and use your deck whether or not you share feedback.
Mother survey
Provider survey
Participating Georgia Perinatal Fund providers are expected to complete the provider surveys as part of this project.
Your observations help us improve training and understand how the deck fits into care. Please share barriers or challenges, too, and leave out client-identifying information.
