Injury Prevention
Central Valley provides families with safe sleeping resources including a pack ‘n play to ensure families have the resources to keep their child safe through the Cribs for Kids program.
Cribs for Kids ® is a safe-sleep education and distribution program for low-income families to help reduce the risk of injury and death of infants due to unsafe sleep environments. The program addresses specific situations dealing with socioeconomic issues such as crib affordability and cultural practices such as bed sharing and secondhand smoke.
Screening is completed by local partners and eligibility varies by site and is based on availability. Crib Kits for eligible pregnant and newly delivered mothers feature a Graco Pack n’ Play, crib sheet, pacifier and a swaddle sack.
