MHPSS Provided by Frontline Health Workers for Mothers of Nutritionally At-Risk Infants under 6 Months of Age

The aim was to document and explore what is currently being used by Management of small and nutritionally at-risk infants less than 6-months and their mothers (MAMI) practitioners who are not mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) specialists to provide non-specialized MHPSS to mothers of infants under 6 months enrolled in the MAMI Care Pathway in humanitarian contexts. This information was intended for determining gaps and opportunities as well as a mapping of available, utilised tools and resources to support MAMI practitioners in their provision of MHPSS to mothers.

This document provides a mapping of interventions, activities, resources and tools used by frontline health workers to provide non-specialized mental health and psychosocial support to mothers enrolled in the MAMI Care Pathway.
