About Let’s Talk — Safe Infant Sleep

Let’s Talk – Safe Infant Sleep builds on what you know about safe infant sleep and moves your work to a model of action. The new approach focuses on an open and honest dialogue between the community trainer and families and caregivers. This training updates and replaces the previous DSHS-developed “Safe Sleep for Babies, a Community Training.”
