Expectant

This community-led prototype continued to explore ways to introduce and integrate the Wellbeing Framework to support people in their transition to parenthood while also allowing space for healing and nourishment through “the heart space,” rather than exclusively “head based” engagement.

In 2022, the prototype team revisioned the prototype and focused on creating a workbook to use with frontline workers, based in the Wellbeing Framework. The workbook steps participants through reflective practices meant to enable a deepening of understanding and nourishing of wellbeing in daily life. The workbook's focus on wellbeing works in complement to current approaches - often based in harm reduction - in a way that allows for a more soulful approach to welcoming a new family into the world.
