Frequently Asked Questions

Who is eligible to join the Brazelton Touchpoints Membership Program?

• Individuals who have completed Touchpoints training including the Individual Level Training, Early Child Care and Education, Home Visitors Individual Level Training, Community Level Training, or Faculty Level Training.

What is the membership term?

Annual membership term is the calendar year. Members may renew each year. The membership drive begins the fall preceding year of membership.  

 

How do teams enroll in the program? Should members of our Touchpoints Team sign up for an individual or organizational membership?

Touchpoints Teams may approach this decision differently given their organizational affiliation, budget and needs. Any member of a Touchpoints Team may apply for individual membership. If all of the members of a Touchpoints Team are employees of the same organization, the team may consider the advantages of an organizational membership. If team members work for different organizations, each of those independent organizations may choose to join as an organizational member to support staff using Brazelton Touchpoints.  

 

What is the difference between an individual and organization membership?

We are committed to supporting individuals, teams and organizations learning and using Brazelton Touchpoints. We are excited to offer special benefits for individuals and organizations able to join this formal membership program. (See Membership Program Announcement.) Organizations may choose to take advantage of added benefits as part of their overall marketing efforts (e.g. acknowledgement on the Touchpoints website as organizational member and discounts for up to 3 designated staff).  

 

Is there a student membership?

At this time we are not offering a student membership.
