Grateful to Be a Partner on Your Parenting Journey
We go beyond hospital-based care providing resources and information to parents and caregivers focused on their children's safety and well being.
Unintentional injury is the leading cause of death for children and teens in the U.S. In 2019, about 20 kids and teens a day died from unintentional injuries. Many of these injuries can be prevented.
