Judith Bannon, executive director of SIDS of Pennsylvania and founder of Cribs for Kids (www.cribsforkids.org), applauded the Saving Babies project and said the organization hopes to use the series to rally infant safety advocates to lobby for standardized infant death investigations and review nationwide. "The articles have been great. We thank Scripps for helping us to save babies from these preventable deaths.  Cribs for Kids, with affiliates promoting infant safe sleep and crib distributions to needy families in 35 states, is holding a national safe sleep conference in Pittsburgh next April 10-13. "We're going to be talking about safe sleep practices, but our main focus will be launching a grassroots movement to get legislation that will help standardize infant death scene investigations and reviews according to standard protocols. Dr. Carrie Shapiro-Mendoza of the CDC (in charge of promoting the new protocols) will be our keynote speaker the first day. Theresa Covington, director of the National Center for Child Death Review Policy in Michigan will also be a featured speaker during the meeting. "We need to be comparing apples to apples with these deaths so we can move forward with preventing them,'' Bannon said.
