Event details
The webinar will share practical advice for parents, guidance for professionals, and policy recommendations to address perinatal loneliness (loneliness experienced by parents through pregnancy and the first two years of a child's life). The webinar will explore how the project is facilitating impacts, including through a new website, booklets for parents, and a policy brief. We will also share key learnings from our process of co-designing for impact.
