Last Call! Register for the KPHA Webinar: Maternal Behavioral Health in Kentucky: Insights from a Home Visiting Lens

Date: Thursday, October 8th at 11am ET
Registration Link: https://virtualconference.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_W-JSEm9aRkuDuV5wLRV_7A #/registration

The presentation will start by exploring the importance of maternal behavioral health in Kentucky, and ways that the HANDS program can support families. The bulk of the presentation will focus on an evaluation of how HANDS serves families with behavioral health needs, from a family perspective, a home visitor perspective, and a community perspective. As we explore barriers, opportunities, and actionable next steps for the HANDS program, attendees will be challenged to apply these lessons learned and reflect on their role in promoting maternal behavioral health.

KPHA wants to hear from you!

The Kentucky Public Health Association (KPHA) Communications and Website Committee is gathering feedback from members about their needs and interests related to grants and grant writing.

Your input will help KPHA better understand where members may need additional support and explore opportunities to offer future education, resources, or programming focused on grant writing.

Whether you’re new to grant writing, looking to strengthen your skills, or regularly work with grants, we encourage you to share your perspective.

Take a few minutes to complete the KPHA Grant Writing Survey and help us identify the resources that would be most valuable to our membership.
