Making sure young children stay safe in cars during child safety seat installation clinics
Supporting programs to install smoke alarms in homes throughout your community
Educating young people on the importance of having safe, healthy relationships
Initiating programs to raise awareness of falls in older adults, and working to prevent them
Teaching coaches, athletes and parents to recognize the signs of concussions and encourage safe play
