“ZERO TO THREE is very inspirational in reminding me that I’m not alone, my team is not alone, our city is not alone, but we are in a group of international people that help inspire us and keep us honest and help us in our pursuit of helping families.” – Audra Miller, MS, LPC, IECMH-E®
“This is someone’s heart they are dropping off to us, and they are expecting us to care for that child as if they were our own. It’s completely changed the way I view my job and the children in my field.” – Masele Navarro, Education Coordinator
“It really helps practitioners and professionals engage in conversations with policymakers and power brokers around ‘What about the baby,’ ‘What about the families,’ and ‘How can we serve them better.” – Brandy Fox, LCSW, IECMH-E®
Our Annual Event: LEARN Conference
Each year, the ZERO TO THREE Conference brings together early childhood professionals from across the world to challenge themselves, explore the latest research, discuss trends and move the early childhood field forward, together.
“The struggle is real to choose between sessions!” – Michelle Brannon, Conference Attendee
“This was just what I needed to reestablish my motivation in moving forward with this work.” – Molly Kenney, Conference Attendee
“It’s those opportunities to connect with professionals from other states doing really parallel work that make this conference so worth attending.” – Sharon Shadwell, LMHC
