Shaken
Baby Syndrome
KotaPress
Editor's Note:
Shaken Baby Syndrome is
an awful subject. It isn't
something I ever want to
think about, but since we
are here to help bereaved
families, this subject often
comes up. Far too often.
The following is a list
of resources offering information
for prevention and support
after intervention and death.
These sources were compiled
by MISS Idaho chapter and
are offered here as a starting
place for others looking
for support or to raise
awareness. Please be in
touch with us if you know
of more resources available.
Karen Coleman, with National
Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome
Karen is speaking in Boise
at the Idaho Children's
Trust Fund sponsored: April
17 & 18, 2003 Strengthening
Families Conference. Their
goal is to prevent child
abuse & neglect. Karen
would welcome the opportunity
to be of help on this subject.
601-627-3399.
The Shaken Baby Alliance - they offer support and information for families & professionals. Their Director is Bonnie Armstrong, and the phone number there is 877-636-3727. The website is very helpful - click to Justice & Legal issues for a story done for Women's Day magazine. Very well done site, informative and heart tugging.

Grayson, who do their work
in memory and honor of their
son Joel, are available
