If you have not applied to attend the “Train the Trainer” event on February  17 – 18 in Port Richey, we still have room in the class for Florida residents. Remember that all expenses will be covered for those who attend. The participants will take this training back to their community and commit to present this information between 5 and 25 times within the next year.

If you are interested in bringing about a change in infant practices that will reduce the incidence of SIDS and improve infant health, and you can make a commitment to implement this training to between five and twenty groups in a year, you should consider applying to attend. This training can be presented to groups such as parent organizations, mother’s groups, childcare providers, Rotary and other civic groups, health professionals, high schools, Lamaze classes, community and health education programs, and employee wellness and education programs. If you are already an active member of any of the above groups, you have an opportunity to impact the members of your group with this message.

If you are interested, open the registration link below.  Send the form back to sidsfla@yahoo.com.

Train the Trainer Agenda

The Florida SIDS Alliance was included in an article published Sunday, December 5 introducing the new federation, Central Florida GIVES! As one of the founding members, we are proud to be a part of this new approach to have direct contact with the donors of Central Florida. All non-profits that join will be screened by Community Health Charities Florida. Each has to meet guidelines in the State of Florida and nationally to maintain the IRS designation of a 501(c)3 charitable organization, ensuring safety for the donor.
Please read the Orlando Sentinel article and gives us your feedback. Let us know what you think of this new way to reach the citizens of Central Florida.

Welcome and thank-you to all new and expectant parents that visited our booth at the Regency Center Baby Fair – Saturday – September 18.  An invitation to join our electronic newsletter will be sent in the next couple of days. You will be asked to follow a link to receive future newsletters. Information about our organization and tips for new parents are included in the issues published every other month.
The drawing for the sleep sacks will be held on September 26 – an email or phone call will be used to obtain a mailing address.
An article was published in the NewsChief about the Baby Fair – check it out with the link below.
