FW Fire Combats Infant Mortality Rate With Training, Cribs

Fort Worth has an infant mortality rate higher than the national average which has prompted new fire chief James Davis to tackle the issue from the inside. All 925 firefighters in the department will be trained to spot warning signs of infants in hazardous sleep situations in their homes. Firefighters will also have free cribs to give to families who are not able to provide the proper, safe sleep situations.
