The Center of Excellence for Infant & Early Childhood Mental Health Consultation announces release of its new Theory of Change for IECMHC webpage
The Center of Excellence for Infant & Early Childhood Mental Health Consultation (CoE for IECMHC) is pleased to launch its new webpage on the Theory of Change for IECMHC.

Decades of research has shown that Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultation (IECMHC) has a positive impact on young children and the adults who care for them. While many evaluators have analyzed the long-term positive outcomes of IECMHC, less is known about WHY and HOW those outcomes are achieved.

A theory of change is a starting point for looking inside the “black box” and for understanding the processes by which an intervention leads to the desired outcomes. This resource can be used across settings by evaluators, program managers, and others curious to understand more about IECMHC!

Equity Chat on Systemic Racism & The Consultative Stance

On Monday, April 19, Kadija Johnston and Eva Marie Shivers facilitated our monthly equity chat on how the Consultative Stance can contribute to dismantling structural racism and other forms of oppression and supports equitable treatment of young children and families.

The Equity Chat Series is designed to provide a forum to further dialogue on equity topics in order to support more equitable systems and strengthen culturally responsive IECMHC practices to reduce disparities and improve child outcomes.
