    Describe the challenge you want to address:
    The challenge I want to address is the disproportionately high rate of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) among Black infants. According to the CDC, Black babies are twice as likely to die from SIDS compared to the general population. Factors contributing to this disparity include lack of access to safe sleep education, systemic inequities in healthcare, and social determinants of health such as poverty and housing instability.\n\nBlack History Month 2025 provides a unique opportunity to not only celebrate the contributions of Black history but also secure the future of Black communities by promoting life-saving safe sleep practices. Through informational trainings on safe sleep for infants and young children, we can empower families with the knowledge and tools they need to protect their babies.\n\nBy ensuring Black babies sleep safely, we not only reduce the risk of SIDS but also honor the legacy of Black history by safeguarding its future. Black babies are the cornerstone of Black History's tomorrow, and investing in their safety today ensures a brighter, healthier future for generations to come.
    What is the solution to the challenge?
    The solution to the challenge is to provide comprehensive training and educational materials to parents and caregivers, equipping them with the knowledge and resources to practice safe sleep techniques every night. This includes clear guidance on creating a safe sleep environment.\n\nResearch shows that proper safe sleep practices can significantly reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and other sleep-related infant deaths. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, consistent adherence to safe sleep guidelines could prevent a substantial portion of the unexpected infant deaths (SUIDs) occurring annually in the United States.\n\nFor Black families, addressing barriers to safe sleep education is essential. Studies indicate that social determinants of health, including access to health care, housing instability, and economic disparities, contribute to the higher rates of SIDS among Black infants. Providing culturally relevant, accessible, by a presenter of the community and from the community and engaging safe sleep education materials is key to bridging this gap.\n\nThe solution also includes:\n\nCommunity Outreach: Partnering with community organizations, churches, and local health centers to deliver in-person and virtual safe sleep workshops.\nTargeted Training: Offering training tailored to the needs of Black parents and caregivers, addressing cultural practices and common misconceptions about infant sleep safety.\nResources Distribution: Supplying families with materials to reinforce training messages.
