Psalm 34:18
Welcome to SIDS America
Our Mission
SIDS America is a national, faith-based, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides hope, help, and healing to families grieving the loss of a child to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) by rallying local financial & emotional support within the communities of these families and providing grief support, prayer, financial assistance, and awareness.
SIDS America offers an array of services and support to families who have suffered the death of a baby to SIDS, but the core of what we do on a daily basis to bring hope, help, and healing to as many families as possible across the United States is centered around:
-
Community Outreach & Support
-
Prayer
-
Grief Support
-
Financial Assistance
-
Support Groups
-
Public & Professional Education
Why We Do It
After the founders of SIDS America lost their son to SIDS, they discovered a vast lack of organized, faith-based grief support, guidance, resources, assistance, services, and financial support for SIDS families in the United States.
Thus, to fill that great void and to give grieving families the option to turn to a national, faith-based organization for support & resources, they founded SIDS America, recognized as one of the leading faith-based SIDS organizations in the country offering financial assistance, prayer, community outreach, and grief support to families suffering the loss of a child to SIDS.
Who We Serve
We serve any individual, family, family member, friend, co-worker, and/or professional who has either directly or indirectly suffered the loss of a child to SIDS. We do not discriminate based on religion, race, gender, or income.
Statement of Faith
We believe that ultimately, our healing, as well as restoration of our hope and joy, comes from God. That God is the one and only God who exists in three persons: Father, Son (Jesus Christ), and Holy Spirit.
The Bible serves as our foundational source of grief support that SIDS America extends to grieving SIDS families. We believe that the Bible, consisting of Old and New Testaments, is the only infallible, inspired, authoritative Word of God.
