List Servers

A List Server is a wonderful communication tool that offers its members the opportunity to post suggestions or questions to a large number of people at the same time. When you submit a question or something that you want to share to the listserv, your submission is distributed to all of the other people on that list. Each listserv targets pre-determined topics and discussions. Once subscribed, members are automatically sent E-mail copies of all communications sent to those lists. Below is a list of injury prevention list servers that you might wish to join.
