Overview

Mission

Aimhitn supports professionals through training, resources, and community involvement to foster the early relational health of infants, young children, and families.

What it reported doing in 2024

At aimhitn, we advocate for the well-being of infants and young children, emphasizing the importance of community-centered, relationship-focused practices. Our commitment to fostering strong foundations, nurturing secure relationships, and shaping promising futures for children from birth to age six reflects our core belief that these elements are essential for lifelong well-being and success. By earning an endorsement, professionals expand their knowledge and skills, becoming key partners in our mission to strengthen early relational health, foster meaningful connections, and promote long-term positive outcomes for young children. Their expertise magnifies our collective impact, bringing us closer to ensuring every child has the support they need to thrive. The infant mental health endorsement (imh-e) and early childhood mental health endorsement (ecmh-e) are rooted in a set of competencies designed to support and enhance community-centered, relationship-focused practices within the framework of infant and early childhood mental health. Endorsement applicants demonstrate proficiency in these competencies through education, work experience, specialized training, and reflective supervision. Working with infants and young children requires specialized training, and endorsement ensures that professionals meet established standards of expertise in supporting young children and their families. Imh-e applies to professionals working with children ages 0-3 and their families, while ecmh-e applies to those working with children ages 3-6 and their families. Both endorsements are relevant for professionals across disciplines, including education, child welfare, early care, home visitation, healthcare, mental health, policy, prevention, and early intervention.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 89% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and expenses are high relative to revenue.
