REACH CNY has trained over 200 Health and Human Services Professionals from our Cribs for Kids partner agencies to be "Safe Sleep Educators". In turn, the trained Safe Sleep Educators have distributed over 800 cribs to local families in need!
If you are a trained Safe Sleep Educator in need of a voucher for a client, please click here to complete the "REACH CNY Cribs for Kids" Referral Form. You may submit the form electronically, or print and fax to REACH CNY at (315) 424-0190. Please call REACH CNY at (315) 424-0009 if you submitted a Referral Form more than 1 business day ago and have not had a response.
**Please note: REACH CNY does not provide cribs directly to families. Crib vouchers may only be requested by trained Safe Sleep Educators, on behalf of families in need. Families of limited means in need of a safe sleep space for their baby will be referred to the appropriate local partner agency, if not already enrolled in services.**
