Reflection in Action:
Parent Engagement through Touc
hpoints

“Parent Engagement through Touchpoints” is a learning collaborative on the Touchpoints approach, an evidence-based model linked to building strong family-child relationships from prenatal through age 5. Participants who implement Touchpoints in their practice partner with families to lay the vital foundation for children’s early learning and healthy development.  Touchpoints provides a practical, preventative approach that supports professionals in forming strengths-based partnerships with families. This learning collaborative centers on reflection and cultural humility to support infant/early childhood mental health, early learning, and development. In addition to 3 full training days, this Intensive includes 6 1-hour virtual reflection sessions. 

This training is offered by RIAIMH in partnership with Meeting Street.
