Events

ZAAIMH holds a monthly online Zoom meeting at 7pm on the 3rd Thursday of each month between February and October each year.

These meetings are free to members and carry a cost of R100 for non-members. The meetings feature local and international guest speakers who share their research and practice within the infant mental health fields. Provided the speaker has given consent, we record the meetings for members who are unable to make the session. The upcoming speaker is announced through our newsletter, here on our website and via Facebook.

If you would like to recommend a speaker or if there is a particular topic you would like covered in one of the monthly meetings, please contact the committee zainfantmh@gmail.com
