Infant Safe Sleep

The Safe Sleep Campaign continues to work diligently to provide information to parents of children between the ages of 0-1 on safe sleep practices. ICAN in partnership with DCFS delivered 228 sleep sacks to 19 DCFS offices.  These sleep sacks are an alternative to swaddling baby’s which allows them to still feel snuggled, however, there arms remain free to move around.

​

ICAN created a 5 minute Safe Sleep informational video in both English and Spanish that can be presented to parents during home calls by providers and can be played in LA County offices and lobbies.

​

ICAN has provided presentations on Safe Sleep Training information to Parents in Partnership meetings which allowed us to reach out to 20 community agencies that work with families with young children.

​

ICAN is currently working with DPSS to provide Safe Sleep Brochures to recipient parents of DPSS services who have children between the ages of 0-1.

​

Currently most DCFS offices are utilizing ICAN Safe Sleep brochures to provide to new families they come in contact with.
