The fifth annual IECMH Symposium takes place July 30-31, 2019 at St. John’s (Collegeville, MN) and will focus on the impact of culture, diversity and implicit bias on working with very young children, their families and caregivers.
Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health (IECMH) focuses on the health and well-being of children ages 0-3 years, and their families. The collaborative, multidisciplinary Faculty Symposia on Embedding Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Principles into Curricula provides faculty with IECMH core principles, tools, and exercises to embed in coursework, building the capacity of new practitioners to be better able to meet the unique relational and developmental needs of very young children, their families, and caregivers.
