The Mississippi SIDS & Infant Safety Alliance is a proud partner of the National Cribs for Kids Program.

In 2012, the Mississippi SIDS & Infant Safety Alliance Cribs for Kids program provided over 400 cribs to families in need of a safe sleep environment. The Cribs for Kids Program in MS is growing at a very fast pace as safe sleep education is reaching more families and they are realizing the importance of their babies sleeping alone in their own crib, on their back.

 

A National Infant Safe Sleep Initiative Since 1998. 

Babies who sleep in unsafe sleep environments, including adult beds, are at a 40 times greater risk of dying.  Where does your baby sleep?

Since 1998, through the donation of thousands of cribs, Cribs for Kids® has been making an impact on the rates of babies dying of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and accident suffocation.  Cribs for Kids® is a safe-sleep education program for low-income families to help reduce the risk of injury and death of infants due to unsafe sleep environments.  Cribs for Kids® currently has 250 partner programs in 44 states throughout the country which provide a GRACO Pack N Play® crib and educational materials regarding ‘safe sleeping’ and other important safety tips to protect your baby.

This is a sample of the type of crib we offer.  Style and size may vary depending on product availability.

Pack n play request must be submitted by a healthcare provider or professional assisting the family.

Please call 601-957-7437 for how the program works.
