If you are in suicidal crisis, please call or text 988 or visit the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Pregnancy and a new baby can bring a range of emotions. Many new moms feel overwhelmed, sad, anxious, or exhausted at different times during their pregnancy or after the baby is born.

Sometimes these feelings go away on their own. But if these feelings last for more than two weeks, and make it hard to carry out daily tasks, like caring for themselves or their family, a mom may have perinatal depression or anxiety. These are common and treatable health conditions during or after pregnancy. And that's why a new mom, or those supporting them, should reach out right away for help.

Graduation Alliance

Website:https://www.graduationalliance.com

Agency Description: Most dropout recovery programs focus on helping students who have left school in the past few months or years. Yet there are more than 28 million adults in the United States without a high school diploma. That’s why, across the country, Graduation Alliance partners with state agencies to facilitate Adult High School Diploma programs aimed at working-age individuals who haven’t given up on the dream of a diploma. These online initiatives pick up where K-12 funding drops off — typically after the ages of 21 or 22 — ensuring that those who weren’t able to graduate in the traditional way can still earn the most essential credential for participation in the modern economy, with:

Fully accredited online curriculum

24-7 tutoring support

Opportunities to earn career-specific credentials

Direct connections to employers for job placement opportunities

Graduation Alliance’s Adult High School Diploma program is giving thousands of people across the nation renewed hope for a better future, with graduates moving on to earn jobs that pay a living wage in fast-growing fields.

Graduation Alliance works to give students of all ages the resources, support and flexibility they need to reach their educational goals and prepare for what’s next. In partnership with educators, government agencies, and community leaders across the nation, Graduation Alliance provides versatile pathways to high school graduation for youth and adults, fosters college and career exploration, and connects job creators to skilled and ready workers. Since 2007, Graduation Alliance has worked with more than 650 state agencies, school districts, community colleges, and workforce boards around the country to recruit, re-enroll, educate, and mentor students. Graduation Alliance also operates The American Academy, an exemplary online high school that is fully accredited by the Northwest Accreditation Commission, a division of Cognia. Our full-service diploma completion programs can be delivered in facility-based, blended, or fully online settings. These programs are supported with recruiting, transcript analysis, technology, coaching and mentoring, social emotional learning assessment and intervention, and robust support services. We also develop and facilitate skill certification packages with tailored support to students of all ages. In coordination with local and national employers, we offer work experience, internship programs and job placement. And we partner with institutions to provide pathways to post-secondary education and career training, complete with preferential enrollment, dual credit opportunities, and early financial aid reviews. In early 2021, Graduation Alliance became a Certified B Corporation. B Corporations use the power of their businesses to build a more inclusive and sustainable economy, and meet the highest verified standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
