BEDS FOR BABIES PROGRAM

2010 Criteria for Crib Referrals

1. Age of Infant - 2 weeks prior to birth to 3 months (No Exceptions).

2. SIDS risk reduction and education must be provided to the client.

3. A copy of the crib and mattress receipt must be returned to us for documentation. Failure to do so will prevent future assistance.

4. Due to the nature of our funding, We can not guarantee the number of cribs we can provide each month. We will mail gift cards on the 15th of each month.

5. The referral form must be fully completed. Incomplete forms will not be considered.  Outdated referral forms will not be honored.

6. The SIDS Center allows $100 per approved referral. A portable crib or "Pack 'n Play" should be purchased. Any remaining funds can be used to purchase appropriate, safe sleep products or necessities for the client. Do not send left over money back; please use on the client.

7. If for any reason you are unable to locate your client after the agency has been issued funding, please return the funds or submit a replacement referral explaining the circumstances.  If it is a replacement please note it in the request.

The Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Center of Indiana is an all volunteer, not-for-profit organization. We will make every effort to handle these requests as quickly as possible. If your agency is in need of a referral form, please contact the SIDS Center of Indiana. A referral form can be faxed to you or you can download the form. Should you have any questions, please leave a message and someone will return your call as soon as possible.
