On May 8, 2025, the Emerald Hills Institute hosted “A Conversation on Maternal Health” in partnership with the Women’s Interfaith Gathering at their Cottonwood Heights location. This impactful event, held in recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, featured a powerful presentation by Margaret Fullmer of the Utah Department of Health & Human Services.
Participants received meaningful and practical training on postpartum depression, anxiety, and chronic stress—challenges that disproportionately affect women. The event provided both educational tools and a supportive space for dialogue around maternal mental health.
Attendees appreciated the actionable insights and community-centered approach, and the evening highlighted the ongoing need for open conversations, cross-sector partnerships, and continued education to improve maternal well-being in Utah and beyond.
