Universal prevention: ROSE is provided to all pregnant people.
Selective prevention: ROSE is provided only to pregnant people at risk for developing PPD.

Indicated prevention: ROSE is provided only to pregnant people with already elevated depressive symptoms (operationalized in this trial as having elevated EPDS scores as study baseline).
QALY: Quality adjusted life year
ROSE: Reach Out, Stand Strong, Essentials for New Mothers, a 5-session educational intervention offered during pregnancy that prevents ~50% of PPD cases. It can be offered by nurses, health educators, and other non-mental health providers.
