FACTS
Unintentional injury is the #1 killer of children age 14 and younger in the U.S.
Among children ages 14 and under, it is estimated that 40% of deaths and 50% of nonfatal unintentional injuries occur in and around the home
9,000 families lose a child each year due to a preventable injury
90% of these injuries could be prevented!

3. What is PTP?
Kiwanis CNH Foundation established the Pediatric Trauma Program in 1994
Addresses the need for education/training of injury prevention
Unintentional injury is the leading cause of death (40%) among children under the age of 15
Common causes: bike crashes, improper child safety seats, domestic dangers, playground injuries and drowning
Injuries can result from a lack of proper equipment
Lack of education about child safety makes the treatment more difficult
PTP is the CNH Foundation’s major focus
