SAFE KIDS Coalition To prevent and raise awareness of unintentional injuries to children from birth to 14. Unintentional injuries are the number one killer of children 14 and under. The number one unintentional injury to children is motor vehicle crashes. There is an active coalition in each state including Delaware which has three active chapters in each county of the state. We are interested in supporting legislative bills in Delaware that will improve highway and child safety.
The Delaware SAFE KIDS coalition is a statewide grassroots movement to fight unintentional childhood injuries. The state coalition is part of the National SAFE KIDS Campaign which has coalitions in all fifty states. The Delaware SAFE KIDS Coalition began in 1989.The Delaware SAFE KIDS Coalition's Vision Statement is "Injury Free Life For All Children".
- Annual SAFE KIDS Days in May and August bring attention to the issue of unintentional injuries.
