In September 2022, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued its latest report on maternal mortality in the U.S., noting in their press release, “Four in five pregnancy-related deaths in the U.S. are preventable.” The report highlighted that the leading causes of pregnancy-related maternal mortality are mental health conditions. The CDC defines deaths due to mental health conditions as suicide and overdose/poisoning related to substance use disorder at 23% of deaths.
