    Join Lana Shklyar Nenide, MS and Kate Sweeney, MSW for a dynamic discussion on how integrating Infant Mental Health (IMH) and the Pyramid Model (PM) can create a more responsive, knowledgeable, and effective early childhood workforce. Together, these frameworks support the mental health and social-emotional development of infants, young children, and their families.

    This is your opportunity to explore best practices, ask questions, and reflect on real-world applications from the book.

    💬 “This book is a generous invitation to consider how intentionally bridging these two frameworks... benefits not only babies, toddlers, and young children, but also the families and adults and the systems that were created to serve them.”
    Meghan Schmelzer, LMSW, IECMH-E®, ZERO TO THREE
