Mission and programs · 2024

• AIMHITN WAS BORN OUT OF A 7+ YEAR GRASSROOTS INITIATIVE WHICH BROUGHT TOGETHER INDIVIDUALS AND AGENCIES INTERESTED IN INFANT AND EARLY CHILDHOOD MENTAL HEALTH (IECMH). AIMHITN CONTINUES TO WORK TO DEVELOP RELATIONSHIPS ACROSS DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES, IDENTIFY EXISTING RESOURCES AND OPPORTUNITIES, AND WORK TO IDENTIFY WHAT IS NEEDED TO ADDRESS THE MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS OF INFANTS, YOUNG CHILDREN, AND THEIR FAMILIES. THE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT WORK OF THE AGENCY BRINGS TOGETHER PARTNERS ACROSS DISCIPLINES AND ACROSS THE SECTORS AND STRIVES TO ADVANCE IECMH THROUGH BUILDING AWARENESS, PROMOTING PROFESSIONAL CAPACITY, FOSTERING PARTNERSHIPS, AND SUPPORTING POLICIES WHICH ARE IN THE BEST INTEREST OF INFANTS, YOUNG CHILDREN, THEIR FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES.

• AT AIMHITN, WE ADVOCATE FOR THE WELL-BEING OF INFANTS AND YOUNG CHILDREN, EMPHASIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNITY-CENTERED, RELATIONSHIP-FOCUSED PRACTICES. OUR COMMITMENT TO FOSTERING STRONG FOUNDATIONS, NURTURING SECURE RELATIONSHIPS, AND SHAPING PROMISING FUTURES FOR CHILDREN FROM BIRTH TO AGE SIX REFLECTS OUR CORE BELIEF THAT THESE ELEMENTS ARE ESSENTIAL FOR LIFELONG WELL-BEING AND SUCCESS. BY EARNING AN ENDORSEMENT, PROFESSIONALS EXPAND THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS, BECOMING KEY PARTNERS IN OUR MISSION TO STRENGTHEN EARLY RELATIONAL HEALTH, FOSTER MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS, AND PROMOTE LONG-TERM POSITIVE OUTCOMES FOR YOUNG CHILDREN. THEIR EXPERTISE MAGNIFIES OUR COLLECTIVE IMPACT, BRINGING US CLOSER TO ENSURING EVERY CHILD HAS THE SUPPORT THEY NEED TO THRIVE. THE INFANT MENTAL HEALTH ENDORSEMENT (IMH-E) AND EARLY CHILDHOOD MENTAL HEALTH ENDORSEMENT (ECMH-E) ARE ROOTED IN A SET OF COMPETENCIES DESIGNED TO SUPPORT AND ENHANCE COMMUNITY-CENTERED, RELATIONSHIP-FOCUSED PRACTICES WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF INFANT AND EARLY CHILDHOOD MENTAL HEALTH. ENDORSEMENT APPLICANTS DEMONSTRATE PROFICIENCY IN THESE COMPETENCIES THROUGH EDUCATION, WORK EXPERIENCE, SPECIALIZED TRAINING, AND REFLECTIVE SUPERVISION. WORKING WITH INFANTS AND YOUNG CHILDREN REQUIRES SPECIALIZED TRAINING, AND ENDORSEMENT ENSURES THAT PROFESSIONALS MEET ESTABLISHED STANDARDS OF EXPERTISE IN SUPPORTING YOUNG CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES. IMH-E APPLIES TO PROFESSIONALS WORKING WITH CHILDREN AGES 0-3 AND THEIR FAMILIES, WHILE ECMH-E APPLIES TO THOSE WORKING WITH CHILDREN AGES 3-6 AND THEIR FAMILIES. BOTH ENDORSEMENTS ARE RELEVANT FOR PROFESSIONALS ACROSS DISCIPLINES, INCLUDING EDUCATION, CHILD WELFARE, EARLY CARE, HOME VISITATION, HEALTHCARE, MENTAL HEALTH, POLICY, PREVENTION, AND EARLY INTERVENTION.

• INFANT AND EARLY CHILDHOOD MENTAL HEALTH IS ROOTED IN THE SCIENCE THAT ASSERTS THAT A CHILD'S EARLY EXPERIENCES HAVE LIFELONG CONSEQUENCES. WE KNOW THAT RESPONSIVE AND CONSISTENT RELATIONSHIPS FROM CAREGIVERS SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF HEALTHY SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL SKILLS, WHICH BECOME THE FOUNDATION OF A YOUNG CHILD'S MENTAL HEALTH. THEREFORE, IT IS CRUCIAL THAT CAREGIVERS FOR YOUNG CHILDREN HAVE THE NECESSARY KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS TO PROMOTE HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT AND BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY AND APPROPRIATELY ADDRESS EARLY SIGNS OF RISK AND DELAYS. AIMHITN TRAINING & TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS FOCUS ON A BROAD ARRAY OF TOPICS AND ENCOMPASS THE INFANT MENTAL HEALTH COMPETENCIES, AND INCLUDE CONCEPTS SUCH AS: UNDERSTANDING THE IMPORTANCE OF HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS AND ATTACHMENT; UNDERSTANDING THE IMPORTANCE OF HEALTHY SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT; UNDERSTANDING THE IMPORTANCE OF BRAIN DEVELOPMENT AND THE IMPACT OF EARLY ADVERSE EXPERIENCES; HOW TEMPERAMENT AFFECTS CHILDREN'S RESPONSIVENESS TO SOCIAL AND PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENTS; THE IMPORTANCE OF PLAY; HOW TO IDENTIFY SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENTAL DELAYS; AND HOW TO EFFECTIVELY ENGAGE WITH PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS AND THEIR YOUNG CHILDREN.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
