The Center for Early Childhood Mental
Health Consultation was created through a grant
from the Office of Head Start. Our target audience includes:
- Mental Health Consultants
- Head Start Program Administrators
- Head Start Staff
- Training & Technical Assistance Providers
- Families
The Center translates research in healthy mental development into materials tailored to the needs of each of the target audiences, and makes them available on this website.
In addition, the Center serves as an online “Community of Learners:” a clearinghouse for the exchange of ideas through traditional and new media.
