Early Mental Health Alignment to Pediatric Primary Care (eMHAPP)

The AAP and Perigee fund work together on shared goals to:

1. Build pediatrician capacity to integrate infant and early childhood mental health into primary care;
2. Elevate the national discourse on perinatal, infant, and early childhood mental health; and
3. Lift up and integrate diverse family experiences into AAP infant and early childhood mental health resources, education, and pediatrician training.

Together, we have completed an Infant and Early Childhood ECHO Series, pilot testing of a Resident Perinatal Depression Curriculum, Perinatal Mental Health Learning Community, Infant and Early Childhood PediaLink course, brief interventions for common concerns videos, early relational health patient care pages on aap.org, and blogs and conference presentations.
