The MB Course (MBC) is a cognitive-behavioral intervention designed to reduce the onset of major depressive episodes and to improve maternal and child functioning (Munoz et al., 2021). This was originally developed for high-risk, low-income, Spanish- and English-speaking women (Le et al., 2015). In 2019, the US Preventive Services Task Force recommended the MBC as an evidence-based counseling intervention to prevent perinatal depression.
