The resolution recognizes April 11, 2025, as Shaken Baby Prevention Day in Minnesota, highlighting the serious issue of Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) and Abusive Head Trauma (AHT). Each year, numerous infants in the state are victims of shaking by caregivers, leading to devastating consequences, including a 25% mortality rate and significant neurological impairments in survivors. The resolution emphasizes that SBS/AHT is entirely preventable and encourages caregivers to adopt strategies for managing frustration, such as allowing a baby to cry in a safe space or taking breaks when feeling overwhelmed.

Furthermore, the resolution underscores the importance of public education to inform caregivers about the normalcy of infant crying and the need for self-care during stressful moments. It calls for the House of Representatives to officially recognize this day and directs the Chief Clerk to prepare and transmit an authenticated copy of the resolution to the organization Never Shake Minnesota, which is likely involved in advocacy and education efforts related to preventing SBS/AHT.
