Baby & Me graduate

Public health nurse Kelly Beard and health education coordinator Karen O’Brien congratulate Alicia Sawatzky of Crawford, the seventh graduate of the Baby & Me program sponsored by the Delta County Health Department. The program helps pregnant women quit smoking and stay quit utilizing a unique incentive — free diapers for a year. Alicia was referred by an earlier graduate, Mia Hartman. “It’s so important to quit smoking and it’s so nice to have the benefit of free diapers for a year,” Sawatzky said. She quit smoking on Valentine’s Day 2011 and gave birth to Alison nearly a year ago.
