About
Thriving Together offers training, technical assistance, and thought partnership to support infant and early childhood mental health/early relational health. We partner with clients to design, implement, sustain and scale innovative approaches that help communities to fill gaps in the system of care serving young children and families.
Our approach prioritizes family and community voice, increasing equity in access to care, and implementation of evidence-based and culturally responsive practices and policies that help young children and their families to thrive.
