Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

CMHD are particularly prevalent among women, posing a major threat to their own and their children's wellbeing.

Despite the high prevalence of CMHD and the existence of effective treatments, interventions supporting women living in low-resourced settings remain limited.

This study builds on a parent study (Zamcharts NCT03991182), which identified a high prevalence of women with anxiety and/or depression. We propose to design, test, and validate a community-based intervention nested within the public primary health system in Zambia, to identify and treat women with mild-to-severe CMHDs.
