The development of state and local chapters of The Shaken Baby Alliance continues nationally. We seek to work collaboratively with all agencies and professionals in a community effort. We seek to ensure that SBS education is woven into the fabric of our society, thus decreasing its prevalence substantially. In addition, we seek severe, swift punishment for individuals that would inflict this type of abuse on a helpless child.

Every effort is made to find support for families within their own home state or locality.
