December 9th is THE Day!

We just received word that the Department of Health and Human Services has been "granted the authority to issue the New Stillbirth Certificates beginning December 9, 2008."

If you have applied and had your request returned, please resubmit for the new certificates and include a check for $12.00.

You can download an application at this website: http://www.dhhs.ne.gov/ced/StillBirthCert.htm

What a great day! We hope to get more press coverage and awareness out now that the certificates are available.

If you have any issues getting a certificate and should be granted one under the terms of the law, please feel free to contact me at brandy.richardson@hotmail.com or Trish Hill at trish521@unlserve.unl.edu.
