October is Safe Sleep and SIDS Prevention Month. Did you know that un-safe sleeping practices are the largest category of preventable death in infants, with 3+ babies dying every *week* in Georgia from sleep related causes.

The good news -- these are overwhelming PREVENTABLE! Follow the ABCs (swipe) or schedule one of our evidence-based, judgment-free webinars today to talk through safe sleep practices and how to realistically implement them in your home or share concerns with other caregivers.

Are you babies grown but you still want to help? Donate a $100 safe sleep kit for a local family through our donate link, or purchase a pack-n-play, sheet, or swaddle from our amazon list today!

Graduation days are some of our very favorite days at Brightpaths!

Last month, we celebrated the families graduating from our Healthy Families program!

Healthy Families isn't a short-term program. Our Family Support Specialists walk with parents from pregnancy through the preschool years, fostering healthy parent-child relationships, teaching child development and healthy discipline, working toward family goals, making connections to community resources, and so much more.

Congratulations, Graduates!
