The purpose of this Informational Letter (INF) is to inform local departments of social services and voluntary agencies of the availability of the Spanish version of the 30-minute New York Loves Safe Babies video, entitled Helpful Strategies for Keeping Infants and Young Children Safe (Estrategias que Ayudan a Proteger la Seguridad de los NiƱos). This video was developed by the Children and Family Trust Fund of the New York State Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS), in partnership with the state Department of Health and other stakeholders, to educate parents and caregivers about ways to prevent the devastating consequences of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS), and traumatic brain injuries. The INF also informs departments of social services and voluntary agencies about other related educational materials.
