Have you experienced PPD and want to help others?

PPD ACT is a research study developed by Postpartum Depression: Action Towards Causes and Treatment (PACT) Consortium, an international group of academic clinicians and scientists committed to understanding the interaction of genes and environment to predict which women are at risk of postpartum depression (PPD).

We are working together to engage women who currently have or had postpartum depression or postpartum psychosis in a genetics research study using our free iOS mobile app, PPD ACT, which is currently available in Australia and the US, and coming soon to the UK. The app is also available on android.

Researchers in the Departments of Psychiatry and Genetics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill who are PACT Consortium members are leading PPD ACT and overseeing the US arm of the study. Additional PACT Consortium members, researchers from the National Centre for Mental Health at Cardiff University and Queensland Brain Institute at the University of Queensland, are launching PPD ACT in the UK and Australia.

Thousands of #Workers in NC are struggling to make ends meet on poverty-level wages. The majority of these workers are women and disproportionately women of color. It’s our turn to raise the wage to $15! pic.twitter.com/fwUM…

North Carolina needs an economy that works for all & ensures broadly shared prosperity, but with a #MinimumWage that has not increased in 12 years, that is simply not the case for many hourly workers. Tell lawmakers to #RaiseTheWage: buff.ly/2Qp8cOD #OurTurnNC #NCFor15

The verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial is only a small step toward holding police accountable for using excessive force against our black & brown siblings. There is still so much work to do to dismantle racism that is apparent in the white supremacist culture we live in. #BLM
