The birth to five program located at Broadway Outpatient hosted its first class in partnership with Phoenix Children's Hospital to help spread awareness on safe sleep for infants. The participants that came received a playpen, sleep sack, 2 books, and a nightlight provided by Phoenix Children's Hospital's Injury Prevention. The participants were also able to receive a diaper bag, socks, pacifier clip, and a wet/dry bag courtesy of the grant awarded to SB&H from the Banner University Family Care Community Reinvestment Program. It was a great turn out! Thank you so much Phoenix Children's Hospital for helping spread awareness to our community!
