The 2024 Infant Mental Health & Wellbeing Series is a series of webinars and in-person workshops with a focus on infants and their parents or caregivers who are at risk or otherwise vulnerable due to family adversity, violence and trauma.

 

Participants will gain an increased knowledge of infant mental health and the impact of adversity and trauma on infant and parent/caregiver development. Sessions will introduce those working with at-risk infants to ways in which they can intervene with infants and their parents/caregivers to support them to recover and thrive within their relationships.
