Safe sleep matters for babies. Each year 3,500 infants die suddenly and unexpectedly during sleep time. Sadly, most of these deaths are preventable. Many infant deaths are due to accidental suffocation or strangulation from unsafe sleeping environments.
As part of our Safe Sleep Initiative, STHCS is working to prevent sudden unexpected infant deaths by spreading the ABCs of Safe Sleep and by serving as a Cribs for Kids® partner organization.

Cribs for Kids® Partnership
In 2016, to increase the impact of our Safe Sleep Initiative, STHCS became a Cribs for Kids® partner. Cribs for Kids® is a national organization that has been working since 1998 to prevent infant deaths due to unsafe sleeping environments. Through this partnership, STHCS is able to purchase Graco® Pack n’ Play portable cribs at a special price and has access to educational and promotional materials.
STHCS has established relationships with local hospitals and health-care providers to identify families who are unable to afford a crib to provide a safe sleep environment for their baby. These families are referred to our organization which determines whether or not they qualify to receive a Graco® Pack n’ Play portable crib for their baby.
