The Alliance for the Advancement of Infant Mental Health is a global leader committed to promoting the healthy emotional and social development of infants, young children, and their families. We achieve this by building and supporting a highly skilled workforce equipped to meet the unique needs of young children through relationship-centered practices. In partnership with individuals and organizations worldwide, we provide training, resources, and credentialing to empower professionals in this critical field.
Collaboration
We proudly partner with associations for infant mental health in 36 U.S. states, as well as associations in Ireland and Australia, creating a global network of professionals dedicated to supporting the mental health of infants and young children. Through the use of the Competency Guidelines and Infant/Early Childhood Mental Health Endorsement (IECMH-E®), we set the standard for quality care, ensuring that professionals have the knowledge and skills needed to make a meaningful and lasting impact.
Join us in expanding our reach and building a stronger, more equipped workforce to support the emotional and social development of infants, young children, and their families.
Voices of the Workforce
In this video, professionals reflect on how the Competency Guidelines have supported their growth, the impact of the Infant/Early Childhood Mental Health Endorsement (IECMH-E®) on their work, and the importance of being endorsed in their native language, such as Spanish, to enhance their practice.
Their insights are shaping policies, informing best practices, and driving meaningful, lasting change in the infant and early childhood mental health field.
We thank these professionals for graciously sharing about their experiences with us!
