Celebrate One is hosting VIRTUAL Safe Sleep Ambassador Trainings! July Dates: Tuesday, July 14th at 11:30AM; Wednesday, July 22nd at 3PM; Thursday, July 30th at 10AM. August Dates: Tuesday, August 4th at 10AM; Wednesday, August 12th at 1PM; and Tuesday, August 25th at 1PM.

On average, one baby dies every other week in our community due to unsafe sleep practices. Sleep-related deaths are a leading cause of death for babies who are one month to one year and a major reason for Franklin County’s high infant mortality rate. Too many babies die in unsafe sleep environments, and many of these deaths are preventable. To do so, remember the ABCs of SafeSleep: Alone (baby sleeps alone and in an empty crib), Back (babies are less likely to choke on their backs), and Crib (empty crib, with a firm mattress and fitted sheet is safest).

This training will be held over WebEx. Please RSVP to Sarah at SLPosten@columbus.gov if you are interested in attending.
