Postpartum Support International - Georgia Chapter

What Postpartum Support International - Georgia Chapter does

Postpartum Support International - Georgia Chapter (PSI-GA) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and one of roughly 50+ state and territorial chapters operating under the national Postpartum Support International umbrella. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, the chapter extends PSI's mission — supporting individuals and families experiencing perinatal mental health challenges — to the Georgia population through local volunteer coordination, community awareness events, and connections to national programs.

The organization delivers a suite of programs and resources, including a toll-free helpline (1-800-944-4773, English and Spanish), an online provider directory of trained perinatal mental health professionals, online peer support groups, a one-on-one peer mentor program, volunteer matching, and professional training and certification (the PMH-C program). The Georgia Chapter supports national initiatives including The Climb (an annual awareness walk campaign), the Mind the Gap coalition, and the Perinatal Mental Health Alliance for People of Color (PMHA-POC). The technology underlying these services is relatively lightweight: a web directory (psidirectory.com), a helpline routed through the national organization, and an iCarol-based volunteer intake form. There is no proprietary technology platform or AI-assisted component documented.

The chapter operates as a non-revenue-generating advocacy and support entity. It is funded through memberships, donations, community contributions, and likely grants funneled through the national parent organization. PSI and its affiliates are governed by California law, with the Georgia Chapter governed locally by a volunteer board of advocates. The chapter has 11 employees and serves a perinatal population segment — pregnant and postpartum individuals, their partners, and families — with no disclosed pricing for services.

Emerging players

• Mahmee: Maternal and infant health platform providing virtual and in-person support with a focus on Black, Indigenous, and other historically under-served birthing people. Comparable equity-driven perinatal focus and overlapping service offerings (support, education, provider connection).
• Maven Clinic: Venture-backed digital maternal health platform offering integrated clinical care, mental health support, and care navigation across preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum. Comparable target population and problem space (perinatal mental health) but offers paid clinical services rather than free nonprofit support.
• Motherly: Digital media and community platform serving expecting and new mothers with content, classes, and peer community. Comparable target audience and perinatal mental health editorial focus, though commercially structured rather than nonprofit.

Direct peers

• Postpartum Support International: The national parent organization of the Georgia Chapter, operating the helpline, online support groups, PMH-C certification, provider directory, and training programs. Direct peer as the centralized counterpart that the chapter operationally extends into Georgia.
• NAMI Georgia: Georgia state chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness providing support groups, helpline, education, and advocacy for individuals and families affected by mental illness. Comparable mental-health nonprofit chapter model, peer-support programs, and Georgia geographic focus.
• The Postpartum Stress Center: Specialty clinic and training institute focused on perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, offering clinical treatment, professional training, and resources. Highly comparable mission and service mix (support, provider training, certification-adjacent training).

Regional players

• Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies Coalition of Georgia: Georgia-based nonprofit focused on maternal and infant health through education, advocacy, and resource connection. Comparable regional scope, nonprofit structure, and maternal/family health focus, with overlapping target population.

Others

• Perinatal Mental Health Alliance for People of Color: An initiative of PSI itself, but worth flagging as a comparable coalition model for addressing gaps in perinatal mental health for communities of color through stakeholder partnerships and provider training.
