Happy Kwanzaa!
"The holiday reflects the best of African thought and practice in its reaffirmation of the dignity of the human person in community and culture, the well-being of family and community, the integrity of the environment and our kinship with it, and the rich resource and meaning of a people's culture." — Dr. Maulana Karenga

Season's Greetings! Take a look at the beautiful photo (and words) from Lana, WI-AIMH's ED, of her menorah at the Middleton Office, taken on the 2nd night of the holiday (with a little embellishment added).

"May light and love prevail over darkness, hate and fear. Happy Hanukkah to all who celebrate!"

Whether there's a holiday you celebrate this season or not, we wish that you find and lean into what grounds you, brings you joy and reassurance, and fills you with love and happiness.

We cannot do this alone. We are grateful to those who are supportive to our work through various ways. WI-AIMH member, Gretchen, shares what WI-AIMH means to her for Giving Tuesday:

"WI-AIMH’s mission matters to me because I believe in the power of relationships fostering healthy social and emotional development. I know that early relationships matter in helping our babies and families thrive into adulthood. WI-AIMH strives to share this message widely and live out this mission in all they do. I appreciate the connections and collaborations they foster to push this work forward in Wisconsin!" ~ Gretchen Huletz, WI-AIMH Member since 2014

We cannot do this alone. We are grateful to those who are supportive to our work through various ways. Our board, who are valued members to our organization, share what WI-AIMH means to them for Giving Tuesday:

"Here’s what I’ve seen WI-AIMH do that inspires me…
Have you ever had one of those days when you feel like you are doing all the hard work alone? You are not alone! That is one of the great things WI-AIMH does for us, it gives us a community of others who understand all the little things we think to do everyday are making huge differences! We who focus on the youngest children; infants, toddlers and preschoolers along with their caregivers, know this period of time is critical and sets the stage for the rest of a child's life. Yet the work can feel hard at times.

Through the community of Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health WI-AIMH brings together, I see the vital work being done by my IECMH colleagues. It inspires me to push more, give more, because I also get so much back. I receive permission to make sure I take care of myself as I care for others. I learn and grow as a provider. And, I feel I can support others in joining us in our mission to promote IECMH throughout our state." ~ Julia Yeary, WI-AIMH Board Member

We cannot do this alone. We are grateful to those who are supportive to our work through various ways. Our board, who are valued members to our organization, share what WI-AIMH means to them for Giving Tuesday:

"I support WI-AIMH because every child deserves the steady, nurturing relationships that help them feel safe, valued and ready to learn. When caregivers are supported and equipped, young children build the emotional foundations that shape their confidence, resilience, and well-being for life. WI-AIMH strengthens the adults who care for our youngest children, and in doing so, strengthens families and communities." ~ Michael Hoffman, WI-AIMH Board Member-Vice President
