What’s Protecting Babies Right Now? A Choose Your Path Virtual Member Experience

July 15 2026, 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET

Special Member Exclusive follow-on discussion, 3:00 PM - 3:30 PM ET

Supporting infants and toddlers means more than understanding risk. It means knowing what actively protects them in the face of stress and adversity. Join us for an interactive Virtual Member Event exploring how ZERO TO THREE is helping babies and families thrive right now, and how these efforts can serve as catalysts for change in your own work and community.

You’ll begin with a dynamic, behind-the-scenes look at how this work is coming to life across ZERO TO THREE initiatives. Hear brief insights from leaders across parenting, policy, HealthySteps, Professional Innovations, and national public awareness efforts like the Believe in Babies campaign. Together, these perspectives highlight how relationships, responsive caregiving, and coordinated systems act as catalysts for strengthening protective factors and promoting resilience for babies and families.

From there, you’ll choose your own learning path and join one of five facilitated breakout conversations led by these speakers, each focused on a key area of impact. You’ll connect with peers, explore real-world challenges, and leave with practical ideas you can use right away. You can only choose one path, so choose wisely.

Learner Objectives: 
As a result of participating in this event, attendees will be able to:

• Identify at least two protective factors or approaches that support resilience and healthy development in infants and toddlers experiencing stress or adversity.
• Recognize at least one strategy used within ZERO TO THREE initiatives that promotes stability and well-being for babies and families.
