What a year.

Thanks to our incredible partners, ILAIMH reached more than 10,000 infants, children, families, and the professionals who care for them in 2025.

And we're just getting started. In the year ahead, ILAIMH is growing—expanding professional learning, building our team, and working toward membership in the Alliance for the Advancement of Infant Mental Health, because when we support the professionals who support families, everyone benefits.

Here’s a glimpse of what we accomplished together, and you can read our full 2025 Impact Report:https://ilaimh.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/ILAIMH-2025-Impact-Report.pdf
