About Us
Each year more than 3,500 Virginians die as a result
of injury and more than 40,000 are hospitalized at a cost in excess
of $500 million. Transportation injuries, poisonings, falls, fires
and burns, drowning, firearm injuries, self inflicted injuries and
assault are largely responsible for this toll. Many of these injuries
are preventable. Our vision is for Virginia to be a place where
people live, learn and play safely. Parents, educators, health providers,
& others can actively participate in raising awareness and enhancing
skills to prevent injury & violence in their communities. Our
strategies for prevention include research
& assessment, policy development, training
and community education, promotion
and dissemination of safety
devices, public
information and funding
of local projects. Click here
