Thank you, Jane Honikman.

At the Postpartum Support International(PSI) Annual Conference earlier this month, your humble POEM directors were presented with the Jane Honikman Award. Jane is the founder of PSI, and the award was created to note "outstanding contributions to the goal of increased awareness of emotional health relating to childbearing."

Not only is it an honor to be recognized for our work, but to receive it from Jane - Wow. She's a powerhouse in a petite package. She has continually appeared undaunted by the many obstacles in the recognition of both postpartum mood disorders and the immense value of social support. She has forged on -providing a voice of support and leadership to both countless families and survivors who look to follow in her footsteps.

Thank you.
