Globally, the prevalence of mental health problems is high and seems to be increasing and it estimated that 10-20% of pregnant women experience poor perinatal mental health. In the future, more children may grow up in families where one or both parents are struggling with mental health problems. Poor mental health is linked to wider determinants of health as low social position increase the risk of poor mental health and may limit access to care. Moreover, poor mental health can negatively impact the social position and resources of individuals and families as well as child health, thus representing an important public health challenge. The foundation of life-long health is laid before birth and in early childhood, and a better understanding of the impact of poor parental health and other determinants of early child health is crucial. This workshop aims to A) offer new insights on the impact of early child health of poor parental health in the context of Denmark, a Nordic welfare state with strong principles of free and equal access to health care services. Also, B) it encourages a discussion about the main challenges and new ways to support families and through this improve short- and long-term child health and potentially also parental health. The knowledge presented as point of departure for discussions, derives from two new Danish studies. One is a qualitative study of the experiences of pregnant women/new parents receiving targeted, community-based perinatal services due to mental health problems. This gives voice to parents' own perspectives of the services they have offered and their lived experiences with poor mental health and parenthood. The other study is the epidemiological CoVer-P project (Children of Vulnerable Parents) based on a cohort of all live-born children born in Denmark 2000-2016 and their parents and a large range of data from Danish nationwide registers. This large cohort have allowed studies that address existing knowledge gabs by examining different severity levels of parental mental health problems, the impact of also the father's mental health and the interaction between mental health and socioeconomic position. The workshop will start with a short introduction and invitation to share thoughts it's topic from the chair (5 min) followed by four 10-minut presentations.
