NC Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Association: 2026 Conference

Registration is now open for NCIMHA’s annual conference, Hand in Hand: Promoting Early Relational Health. Come together to learn about infant and early childhood mental health (IECMH), two-generational approaches, and maternal mental health. Join NCIMHA for 3 days of learning, camaraderie and connection. Similar to IECMH, two-gen approaches and maternal mental health, Early Relational Health is the state of emotional well-being that grows from the mutual, positive connections between babies, toddlers, and their caregivers.

October 8-9: Two full in-person days at Cape Fear Community College in Wilmington, NC

October 15: One full day of virtual sessions

The total cost for participation is $175 for NCIMHA members, $225 for non-members, and $100 for students. Participants unable to join in person may choose to register for the 1-day virtual event for $75. Scholarships are available. Four sessions – two in the morning and two in the afternoon – will bring together local and national voices in infant and maternal mental health spaces.
