children in the home, car and surrounding environment. This program offers up-to-date information on relevant auto
safety, home safety, water/pool safety, furniture/toy concerns, and nutrition. With over 43,000 children

Did you know that more children lose their lives each year due to PREVENTABLE injuries than all
childhood diseases combined?
SafeLife® Kids was created in response to this realization and is taught in local 5th grade classrooms
through an interactive 10-week curriculum. Each chapter takes 45 minutes to present and focuses on a topic
that specifically affects the well being of children.
Volunteers from business and the community teach the class in an open format encouraging group discussion and feedback.
Special coaching is provided to each volunteer who then meets with the same class of 5th graders to guide them through all 10 sessions.
Topics such as gun safety, Internet safety, personal safety, violence prevention, decision making, occupant
restraint, water safety, emergency medical situations, pedestrian safety, and outdoor recreational safety are discussed.
SafeLife® Kids is an exceptional opportunity for both business partners and students to learn together.
Corporate sponsorships often make the difference in creating active, hands-on learning experiences in many
schools. Youngsters welcome the change in daily schedules and always have smiles of encouragement for
classroom volunteers.

This program has two vital audiences: senior citizens themselves, and their adult children. Injuries to seniors mean
lost work time for their adult children.
Falls kill 29 seniors each day, and 240,000 people over the age of 50 will suffer hip fractures
as a result of a fall. One of ten seniors who fall will be hospitalized, and half of those hospitalized will never be
able to live independently again. Other preventable incidents - burns, motor vehicle crashes, and unintentional poisonings for
example- are far more likely to be injurious or fatal to seniors.
Your parents probably worked hard to provide a safe environment for you as you were growing
up. Now, as your parents move toward, or are beginning to enjoy a well deserved retirement, it's
time for you to return the favor. This program can help you to do just that. Learn the exposures and appropriate counter measures.
SafeLife Seniors is presented to your organization in two and one-half hours by the Safety Council or by your own in-house trainer.
