As a Past President of the Massachusetts Association for Infant Mental Health, she has played a crucial role in advancing early detection and intervention initiatives.

At the Brazelton Touchpoints Center, Dr. Singer spearheaded the Early Care and Education Initiative, adapting the Touchpoints Approach to enhance preventive social-emotional health within early education settings. This initiative laid the groundwork for the Tribal Touchpoints Initiative and the Office of Head Start National Center on Parent, Family, and Community Engagement.
