Abstract
ABSTRACT Infant and early childhood mental health consultation (IECMHC) is a national model with proven positive outcomes for children, teachers and classrooms, as well as effectively addressing racial inequity in preschool suspension and expulsion rates. This paper discusses recent efforts in the Maryland IECMHC program to deeply and systematically address equity and increase consultant capacity to understand and address racial inequity within early childhood settings.
