What we do

The Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Roundtable is a network of people who work to improve mental health for the youngest residents of Franklin and Hampshire Counties and the North Quabbin Region. Anyone is welcome to join this group that meets regularly and shares an email list.

The group has been meeting for many years, with volunteer leadership from Sarah Patton. In 2021 we received money from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health Bureau of Substance Addiction Prevention, and through a careful planning process we chose to focus our efforts of the Touchpoints program.

The Brazelton Touchpoints Approach to family engagement, is an evidence-based professional development program that assists family-facing professionals in engaging families more effectively through a strengths-based mindset and by partnering with them during the critical and challenging periods of child and family development.
