Understanding the risk of Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID) and the many ways to help prevent it can make it easier to practice safe sleep.

This toolkit is intended to help build awareness, empowerment and increase trust in our community about safe sleep. The information in the kit is based on credible, culturally responsive recommendations that can help parents and caregivers make decisions about safe sleep for their infants.
