State Child Fatality Review Teams

State Child Fatality Review Teams are specialized groups of professionals, including public health experts, law enforcement, and social workers, who analyze the cases of children who have died unexpectedly or under concerning circumstances. Their goal is to identify patterns, risk factors, and causes to prevent future tragedies. By thoroughly reviewing each case, they provide recommendations to improve child safety policies, strengthen prevention efforts, and support families. These teams play a vital role in understanding why child deaths occur and helping communities implement strategies to protect children better.
