Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health has been the foundation of our mission in Palm Beach County since being founded in 1999. We focus on promoting young children's mental health, well-being, and resilience. Research shows that this period of life is one of critical importance, providing the foundation for health and wellness throughout the lifespan.We are fighting the immediate and lifelong impact of exposure to abuse and violence on children.
Our programs and expertise are grounded in research about brain development and the impact of trauma. We bring the science to practice, with interventions that have been proven. We know that in the absence of healthy relationships, violence and abuse in childhood can change the developing brain.
