Cradle Cincinnati

Too many babies die before their first birthday every year in Hamilton County. We were recently ranked the 5th worst urban county in the country for infant mortality. With your help we’re here to change that. Our vision is that every child born in Hamilton Country lives to see their first birthday.

We believe that these numbers can change. And they will if, collectively, we invest in changing three things about our community:

• preventing prematurity by increasing the amount of time between each woman’s pregnancies
• reducing tobacco use and other substance abuse in pregnancy
• promoting safe sleep for babies
