Marketing/Fundraising Intern - First3Years

First3Years, originally incorporated as the Texas Association for Infant Mental Health (TAIMH), is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the health and development of Texas' youngest children. Our rebrand to First3Years reflects our unwavering commitment to the critical period of development from birth to age three—a time when the foundations for lifelong learning, behavior, and health are established.
While a child’s genetics provide the blueprint for brain development, it is the quality of daily interactions with caregivers that shapes how the brain is wired to think, feel, and relate to others. At the heart of our work is a focus on these early relationships and their profound influence on a child's social-emotional and cognitive development.
