This blog is sponsored by the New Jersey Association for Infant Mental Health (www.njaimh.org) and will publish posts by NJAIMH members and other contributors on topics related to optimum development of infants and their families.
The term "infant mental health" refers to good early development of cognitive, emotional, and physical abilities in children, and to the fostering of parenting skills and relationships that provide the foundation for individual development. Much of the emphasis in the study of infant mental health is on positive achievements and family strengths, and most posts here will focus on those, although we will sometimes refer to new work on autism and other serious developmental problems.
