It takes a village to support the youngest among us. Tonight’s Gala Dinner celebrates that wider community while honouring individuals whose contributions have helped advance the well-being of infants, young children and families. To our honourees, and to everyone who contributes to this work, thank you for your dedication and care.

Attendees also enjoyed a wonderful performance by Canadian, Juno-nominated band Sultans of String!

As WAIMH 2026 is about to kick off tomorrow, we want to recognize an incredible partner who has been with us throughout this journey: Destination Toronto.

From the very beginning, Destination Toronto has been instrumental in helping us build WAIMH 2026 from the ground up. Their dedication, generosity and belief in our vision have helped transform an idea into a global gathering that will soon welcome the infant and early childhood mental health community to Toronto.

With their incredible partnership and the support of the City of Toronto, we are proud to welcome colleagues from around the world to a city that has truly embraced our Congress and its purpose.

To the Destination Toronto team: thank you for your partnership, your enthusiasm and everything you have done behind the scenes to help make WAIMH 2026 possible. We are deeply grateful to have you alongside us.

We can’t wait to welcome the world to Toronto!

September 30 marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day.

At Infant and Early Mental Health Promotion (IEMHP), we honour the children who never returned home from residential schools, the Survivors, and their families and communities.

Supporting infant and early mental health means recognizing the importance of connection to family, community, culture and language. It also means listening to Indigenous voices, respecting Indigenous knowledge and leadership, and understanding the ongoing impacts of residential schools across generations.

Today, we encourage our community to deepen their learning and reflect on how the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action can inform our work and everyday actions. This responsibility extends beyond September 30.

Every Child Matters.
