Upcoming Seminars:

We are excited to announce that we will be moving to a new webinar format for the Infant Mental Health Brown Bags beginning in Fall 2018! We ask for your patience while we set up the system. During this time, we will not have Brown Bags. We look forward to having you join us again in September!
