About Connected Beginnings

Connected Beginnings Training Institute (CBTI) was launched by the United Way of Massachusetts Bay/Merrimack Valley, Inc. (UWMB) in 2006 to build the capacity of infant and early childhood practitioners to engage in nurturing relationships with the very young children in their care. As research has revealed, positive, supportive, enriching and nurturing relationships with adults and other children are critical to young children’s social and emotional well-being, mental health, evolving brain architecture and capacity to learn.

Connected Beginnings Training Institute

provides, coordinates, and evaluates professional development and training aimed at enhancing the social and emotional well-being of young children within their families, their communities, and their early care and education programs. Read about our Mission and Vision . . .
