Meet Brian Rauscher, who has lived in the Coeur d'Alene area since 1997.

Brian has a bachelor's in petroleum engineering from the Montana Tech of the University of Montana and has dabbled in engineering, entrepreneurship and nonprofit work. Brian finally found his passion, working with and advocating for the health and safety of children, while working in the foster care system. Brian, alongside his partner, Liz Montgomery, founded Inland Northwest SIDS Foundation, now Safe Start, in February of 2012 in honor of her infant son, Mason, who died in 2003. Brian now works full time in prevention education to ensure all children are able to reach their first birthday and beyond, free from accidental death or injury.
