Harvard: Early Childhood Mental Health

The framework for stable mental health is constructed when we are all very young. As infants and toddlers form connections regarding people and the world around them, their mental health is developing. When there are unhealthy relationships or adverse experiences, a child's brain can be negatively impacted.

Harvard University's Center on the Developing Child continues to produce sound research to explain why it's important to protect all children's early life experiences. The newest publication in their InBrief series presents a solid case for why investing in young children's early development can help prevent many common problems in the future. The research presented supports the very core of Help Me Grow.
