Contact the Periscope Project
The Periscope Project welcomes health care providers treating pregnant and postpartum persons in Wisconsin to contact us regarding the mental health concerns of a perinatal patient. The program is available across health systems and offered with no added cost. We cannot accommodate calls or emails from patients or family members.
The Periscope Project is fast and easy. It fits into your day and you receive high quality information that you feel comfortable bringing back to your patients.
