New Generation
Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Program
Every child can live up to their fullest potential!
CHRIS 180’s New Generation program equips parents and caregivers of children with what they need to build stronger relationships with children so they can feel safe, supported and valued. Many children are not able to live up to their potential because they are labeled as problems when they’re very young. This can happen when the adults need help to respond to challenging behaviors and understand what is going on with their children. The family can be helped so that the children and entire family can thrive.
We provide a team approach to services focused on the family and other caregivers wherever the child is.

Infant Early Childhood Mental Health Training
CHRIS 180’s CHRIS Training Institute provides trauma training specifically designed to address the needs of both educators and clinicians statewide. The goal is to raise awareness around what trauma is and what the impact of trauma looks like in young children. Participants will learn about the impact of early childhood trauma on brain development and behavior and what interventions and support works best.
