We invite our members to join us for an insightful session of Conversations of the Field (COF). This month, we are diving deep into the vital role of Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultation (IECMHC) within Early Childhood Education (ECE) programs.

This session offers a unique opportunity to learn from the front lines of program management and clinical consultation. We will explore strategies for supporting ECE programs and the multidisciplinary approaches that strengthen outcomes for children and families.

Our Featured Presenter

We are honored to be joined by Cassie Centofranchi, LMFT, a valued member of our Communities of Practice Committee.

Cassie currently serves as the Program Manager of the Growing Together Team at CALM. In this role, she leads the provision of Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultation to ECE Programs throughout Santa Barbara County. With over 15 years of experience across school, community, and therapeutic settings, Cassie brings a wealth of practical knowledge and a deep commitment to the field.

The California Association for Infant Mental Health (CalAIMH) is proud to continue our thought-provoking series: “What is Resistance”.

This is not a traditional webinar; it is a virtual conversation designed for reflection. On the fourth Thursday of every month, we gather to consider how resistance manifests in the field of infant mental health and the broader systems we navigate.

Who leads this space?
You will hear from the diverse voices of our Communities of Practice Committee, including Dr. Lynette Lively Cookson, Dr. Richard Cohen, Gaby Espinoza, Maria Williams, Dr. Vivian Tampkin, Emily Sinsin, and many more.

Why join us?
Understanding resistance is key to promoting equity and healthy relational development. Whether it’s a signal of a protective force or a reaction to systemic harm, we provide the space to unpack it together.

Quick Info:

• When: April 23 at 7:00 PM.

• Where: Virtual via Zoom.

• Access: Open to all professionals—membership is not required.
