Title: Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health: Honoring family, culture, and community relationships between infants, young children, and their adult caregivers
Description: Please, join us at our 20th annual Spring Conference as we discuss our collective and continuing efforts to honor the diversity and beauty of all children, families, and communities that we serve across Connecticut. Particular areas of focus will include reflecting on our own capacities to engage in diversity-informed practice and best ways to use the “self” to deepen our relationships with families in our work and to understand how cultural/community traditions and expectations influence early attachment, mental health, and development in very young children.
