BBW launches the Generational Wealth Series. The four-part series connects economic sustainability with healing and community power. PROMISE, a Reproductive Psychiatric consultation line in LA County, is launched. This is recommendation #1 in 2015’s A Systems Change Proposal for Preventing and Treating Perinatal Depression and Anxiety in Los Angeles County & Policy Roundtable. We’ve train all home visitors in LA County through our partnership with the LA County Perinatal and Early Childhood Home Visitation Consortium. This comprehensive training has proven to be a critical intervention that dramatically increases screening rates and detection. Trained home visitors achieved 97%-98% screening rates for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders in 2024 compared to only 53% at community clinics through the Los Angeles Maternal Mental Health Access program. Trained home visitors reported 10% positive screening rates for depression and 5% for anxiety, compared to 4% at community clinics, reflecting the inherent capacity of home visitors to build trust with families in the safety and comfort of their own homes compared to clinical settings.
“ This program represents
something rare and valuable: financial education that recognizes wealth-building as both a personal journey and a collective endeavor. - BBW Generational Wealth Series participant
