Register for our upcoming webinar with Child Family Community Australia (CFCA) Australian Institute of Family Studies which will discuss how to work collaboratively with families to engage with their 'village' and promote infant and toddler mental health.

This webinar will help you:
- understand the influence of infant and toddlers’ ‘village’ on their mental health
- consider what factors might help or hinder a family’s connection to their infant and toddlers’ ‘village'
- support parents to make sense of their infant and toddlers’ behaviours and what might be happening in their child’s inner world; and
- consider how collaboration can support the parent-child relationship, day-to-day caregiving and resilience after adversity.
