Injuries are the leading case of death for Floridians
and children ages 0 – 14 years.

Safe Kids Worldwide and other organizations committed
to injury prevention recognize that these injuries are not
"accidents" resulting from chance or unpredictable
occurrences. Also called "accidental injuries," unintentional
injuries result from a variety of mechanisms of injury –
drownings, falls, fires, motor vehicle crashes, etc. –
that were not intentionally caused by someone.

Most of these injuries and fatalities can
be avoided…almost 90%. Safe Kids North
Central Florida knows we can make a difference!

We are committed to
education, community
outreach and hands-on
instruction to teach
parents and children
how to avoid injuries.
