    About Us

    We are a team of 3 women who run this non-profit who are all heart for the cause. We support the families of child abuse in the form of Shaken Baby Syndrome (abusive head trauma, non-accidental head injury). This is a very difficult situation to be in and we offer not only support via Facebook groups and phone. We also have several programs that help families directly. We also have Awareness, Education, and Prevention programs.
