Project details
What we need
- An easily understood visual aid that communicates complex information
- A high-resolution version of the Infographic in the Organization’s preferred format
Additional details
We are working to prevent unexpected infant deaths by spreading the ABCs of Safe Sleep and by providing free Cribs. We want to show the lives saved with the resources provided by our agency. We need a way to tell our story via infographic.
We need to be able to show that the reduction in infant deaths in our area is related to our ability to provide education and free cribs to low-income families.
What we have in place
- We currently have data, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have past info-graphic that we have used, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,792 , allowing us to continue to fund cribs and education to families in need
We would share this infographic funder to be able to continue to provide education and cribs to families at risk.

Our mission
It is the mission of Southern Tier Health Care System, Inc. to improve the health and wellness of the rural communities we serve.
What we do
For more than 25 years, the Southern Tier Health Care System (STHCS) has worked collaboratively to address the health and wellness needs of southwestern New York's rural communities. A 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, STHCS is headquartered in Olean, N.Y., with programs supporting 250,000 residents throughout Allegany, Cattaraugus, and Chautauqua counties.
These areas are federally designated as HPSAs, meaning they lack an adequate number of primary care and mental healthcare professionals. Moreover, the socioeconomic conditions of our communities make it challenging for residents to access these limited services. More than a quarter of the children in the areas we serve are living in poverty; our counties rank in some of the lowest percentiles statewide in health outcomes.
With an emphasis on leveraging new technologies to scale access to healthcare across our communities, we partner with healthcare providers, parents & caregivers, educators, law enforcement, faith leaders, and other public health and social services officials to deliver the most holistic care possible. Our programs range from training and accrediting local EMS agencies to promoting mental health by educating community members in life-saving techniques such as Narcan training, Stop the Bleed, and suicide prevention.
Working with our 12 collaborating partners, STHCS develops and implements programs that identify and remove barriers to health care. In collaboration with our federal, state, and local partners, STHCS advances the broader Department of Health priorities that are designed to enhance the capacity of our health care system and to offer a wide range of tangible assistance to our underserved communities.
Testimonials
We loved working with Heather on our infographic for our infant safe sleep program. She provided us with a fantastic document that will allow us to show the impact of our program on our community. Heather was able to condense a large amount of information and data into an easy to understand format!
I enjoyed working with Southern Tier Health System and helping them with their infographic project. Donna and Alicia were super responsive and easy to work with. I would partner with this organization again!
