APAL's Impact on
Perinatal Mental Health
APAL offers free trainings, consultations and resources.
In our first year, we have served over 50% of AZ’s counties.
APAL has worked with midwives, RNS, MD/DOs, NPs, PAs, and doulas to guide psychiatric care.
Half of APAL's consultations support patients with AHCCCS or who are uninsured.
APAL has completed over 40 free trainings.
APAL's consultation services cost less than 60 cents per woman aged 15-44 per year.
We have 100% satisfaction with the providers we consult with.
APAL is collecting data on trends of perinatal mental illness in the state in order to inform state and federal healthcare systems on best models of care delivery. The lack of data on maternal mental health is shocking and shameful and we are working to shift that paradigm.
