About Nurtured TX

Our Mission

Here at Nurtured TX, our mission is to connect Texans to high-quality perinatal mental health care, education, and resources. We nurture support, hope, and recovery for those navigating perinatal mental health disorders.

Who We Are

Nurtured TX is a volunteer-driven nonprofit organization that is dedicated to nurturing perinatal mental health support before, during, and after pregnancy so all Texans can thrive. Nurtured TX, formerly known as the Pregnancy and Postpartum Health Alliance of Texas, was started in 2011 in a collaboration between mothers in search of community and healing and mental health care professionals who specialize in PMHD treatment.

What We Do

Nurtured TX proudly serves Texas by:


Firstly, being a resource for individuals and families in need of help by providing a network of local providers that specialize in PMHDs, known as the Kristi’s List Provider Directory.

Second, we seek to educate. We offer continuing education courses for medical professionals as well as the general public and participate in educational seminars and conferences for health professionals.

Finally, and perhaps most notably, through our Central Texas Connect to Care Program, we offer the opportunity for underserved individuals in the Central Texas community to receive care through therapy and psychiatry vouchers. This program was created to help birthing people in Central Texas who might be unable to afford PMHD care.
