SUID PROMISING PRACTICES ANNOUNCED!
An important focus of the Project IMPACT mission is providing technical support to state and local professionals regarding their efforts to address sudden unexpected infant death. We are often asked to research and share community activities, funding opportunities, and model programs for both prevention initiatives and bereavement services.  In response, we have invited colleagues from across the nation to share their innovative initiatives by completing the online Promising Practices template.   

We invite you to visit the Promising Practice Page on the Project IMPACT website to read about these community programs. We also invite you to complete the online Promising Practice Template so that your state can be featured on the Promising Practice Page.
