Postpartum Progress reader Mary Howorth has been keeping me up to date on the llegislative happenings in the state of Illinois, and she tells me that the Illinois Senate passed Senate Bill 15 – "The Perinatal Mental Health Disorders Treatment & Prevention Act" by a vote of 55-0 at the end of last week. Congratulations! I think that it now has to pass in the state's House and they'll be good to go in Illinois!

Katherine, Thanks for keeping everyone informed of our progress in Illinois. We're very hopeful to have this meaningful legislation on the books before the end of the session. Your post today was especially heartfelt for me today as it is my son's 7th birthday. Thank you for all you do on behalf of women, children and families! Mary
