Dad's Guidebook
The Dads: The Basics Guidebook is a
comprehensive handbook on fatherhood. It discusses the infant's basic
needs, coping techniques for crying and an overview of SBS/AHT.
Crying CD-ROM
This high-quality, 5-minute CD is an excellent tool for use in all SBS training sessions. The full 5 minutes consists of an infant during a pain-like crying period.
Demonstration Doll
These 20”- 22’’ dolls are a powerful way to
illustrate what can happen when an infant or young child is shaken. The dolls are the approximate dimensions of a 2-3 month old
baby. The
dolls are not anatomically correct or have mechanical components such as
lights. Select between Caucasian, African-American, Asian and Hispanic
dolls.
School Based Curriculum Program
The School-Based Program is designed for
Secondary Education students. This field tested program educates
students on the medical characteristics of SBS and the long term
consequences for the victim and the perpetrator. It reaches young adults
as potential caregivers and future parents by teaching students how
frustration can lead to shaking and helps them understand the importance
of appropriate coping skills.
The moving documentary "Elijah's Story"
accompanies the program along with an updated letter from Elijah's mother, Emily. The program includes several demonstration materials and ideas, a
presenter's manual with a quiz, and talking points for the documentary.

”If students can be informed about the dangers of shaking a baby before
they are faced with an inconsolable crying infant, the problem can be
prevented. The school-based curriculum provides a ready-made way for
teachers to immediately create an effective teaching experience for
students with no barriers to implementation.”
