CLEARLAKE, Calif. – Mother-Wise is looking for dedicated volunteers who can spend some “one-on-one” time with Lake County mothers.

An upcoming training seminar in the city of Clearlake will introduce the Mother-Wise program and prepare volunteers for home visits by exploring the subjects of perinatal mood disorders, home visiting, values and active listening.

The training is spread over three days, with the first two sessions in the evening on Thursday, Feb. 3, and Friday, Feb. 4, from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The third session will be on Saturday, Feb. 5, from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., with lunch included.

Registration is required, as is attendance at all three sessions.

Mother-Wise helps mothers when they need it most. Perinatal mood disorders can affect any mother during or after any pregnancy. The program accepts volunteers and new moms on a continual basis.
