Give Babies Room to Breathe
The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) is renewing a three-month broadcast and social media campaign to educate parents and caregivers on lowering the risk of infants dying in their sleep.
Hundreds of Texas babies die in their sleep each year - suddenly and without a clear explanation. Still more die in their sleep from accidental suffocation or strangulation. Last year, DFPS' Child Protective Services program investigated 177 infant deaths that occurred as infants slept with adults or older children.
