New mothers in Saint Lucia are now eligible for a one-time EC$1,000 payment under the Government’s Newborn Grants Programme, officially introduced this week. While the initiative is being welcomed as a timely boost for families facing the immediate costs of caring for a baby, maternal health advocates say the support must keep pace with rising living costs and be accompanied by stronger community support for mothers, including those dealing with mental health challenges.
