Suggested Language for Communicating with the Family

If you have not yet discussed the SUDC Foundation with the family, the following language may be used or adapted when introducing the SUDC Foundation and requesting permission to make a referral.

The SUDC Foundation is a nonprofit organization that supports families following the sudden, unexpected, and unexplained death of a child. The SUDC Foundation provides services at no cost to families, including trauma-informed grief support, family resources, and specialized postmortem support and guidance that may be relevant to your family.
