Educational Services

SIDS of Illlinois is committed to educating professionals, health care providers, caregivers, and anyone else who is interested on how to reduce the risk of SIDS and other infant deaths.

We achieve this goal through a wide variety of professional partnerships and community outreach programs. Some of our programs are offered in English, and others are in Spanish.

We also distribute an Education and Research update to help keep other professionals informed of the latest developments in our quest to eliminate infant mortality in Illinois.
