Resources for
Caregivers & Perinatal Patients
Resources to Support Wellbeing
While VTCPAP's consultation service is designed primarily for healthcare providers, we recognize that caregivers are essential members of a child's support team and that perinatal patients and families may benefit from additional resources and support.
Our approach considers each patient within the context of their family, relationships, and community. We believe that informed and supported caregivers play a critical role in promoting positive mental health outcomes for children, adolescents, and families.
Below, you will find a collection of resources to help caregivers better understand and support their child's unique developmental, emotional, and mental health needs. Caregivers are encouraged to partner closely with their child's Primary Care Provider (PCP), who can contact VTCPAP for consultation and support when questions arise.
We have also included resources specifically for perinatal patients and their families.
Please note that the resources provided are for educational and informational purposes and are not intended to replace medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment from a healthcare professional.
If you are looking for a mental health provider, VTCPAP recommends the Vermont Counseling Network or Psychology Today.
