Safe sleep practices are designed to reduce the chances of Sudden Infant
Death Syndrome (SIDS), accidental suffocation, and other deaths related
to unsafe sleep practices. Thanks to safe sleep practices, sleep related
deaths like SIDS are on the decline, however, it is important that all
health providers, parents, and caregivers know how to create a safe sleep
environment.
Founded in 1998 by Judith A. Bannon, Cribs for Kids is a national infant
safe-sleep education program that helps to reduce the risk of injury and
death of infants due to accidental suffocation, asphyxia, or undetermined
causes in unsafe sleeping environments. Visit
