Northwest Infant Survival and SIDS Alliance

Mission

Northwest Infant Survival & SIDS Alliance is dedicated to improving childhood health and safety throughout the Northwest via our educational programs, public safety initiative and regional partnerships. We also provide bereavement support to anyone affected by a pregnancy, infant or child loss.

We believe every child deserves to celebrate their first birthday and beyond: free from accidental death and injury and that no family should have to experience the accidental death of a child.
