Designates October of each year "Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Awareness Month."

This resolution designates October each year as "Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Awareness Month" in New Jersey. It aims to educate families about SIDS causes and prevention practices, while promoting research into reducing SIDS occurrences. The bill highlights that SIDS remains the fourth leading cause of death for infants under one year (with 1,400 annual U.S. deaths as of 2017) and notes persistent racial disparities in SIDS rates, particularly affecting infants born to African-American and Native American/Alaska Native mothers. The resolution requests the Governor issue an annual proclamation encouraging public awareness activities during October.
