MI-AIMH Organizational Membership

Honoring the Leaders Strengthening Michigan’s Early Childhood & Family-Serving Workforce

Across Michigan, organizations are stepping forward to strengthen the relationships that support babies, young children, families, and the professionals who serve them. MI-AIMH Organizational Membership recognizes and uplifts those leaders — agencies who understand that reflective, relationship-based, equity-centered practice is essential to healthy communities.

Organizational Members invest not only in their own workforce, but in Michigan’s entire early childhood and family-support system. They help build a shared language, strengthen reflective supervision, and ensure that families receive consistent, IECMH-informed care across programs and sectors.

Our Founding Organizational Members

MI-AIMH is proud to recognize the first organizations to join us in this statewide movement:

• Wayne RESA
• Merrill Palmer Skillman Institute at Wayne State University
• Starfish Family Services

These partners are modeling what system leadership looks like — investing in their teams, building capacity across sectors, and championing the mental health and emotional well-being of infants, toddlers, young children, and their families. Their commitment helps shape a stronger, more connected workforce for Michigan.

We anticipate welcoming many organizational partners in the coming year.

Why Become an Organizational Member?

System-Level Leadership in Action

Organizational Membership is more than a bundle of benefits.
It is a commitment to building a reflective, stable, skilled workforce grounded in early relational health.

Becoming an Organizational Member allows agencies to:

• Strengthen reflective supervision and emotionally responsive leadership
• Align staff across programs with a shared, relationship-centered practice framework
• Support Endorsement® pathways and professional growth
• Improve staff retention and well-being through reflective practices
• Ensure consistent, culturally responsive care for families across systems
• Connect with statewide partners advancing infant and early childhood mental health
• Demonstrate leadership in early relational health, trauma-informed care, and equity

This membership signals that your organization sees workforce development not as a cost — but as critical infrastructure for healthy communities.

What Organizational Members Receive

While the heart of membership is system-level impact, Organizational Members also receive:

• Membership access for all endorsed staff and those currently pursuing Endorsement®
• Opportunities to expand membership across teams at no additional cost during the year
• Discounted registration for MI-AIMH trainings and conferences
• Access to statewide learning communities, reflective supervision supports, and professional development
• Optional add-ons such as the 20-Course Online Learning Bundle (38.5 CE hours of on-demand learning) for just $100 per staff member (Social Work CEUs, MiRegistry Credits, and Endorsement Credit included!)
• Visibility as a leader committed to workforce well-being and early relational health

Organizational Membership strengthens your teams today — and contributes to building a sustainable, IECMH-informed system for tomorrow.
