National Strategies
for Advancing Child Pedestrian Safety
Now available from CDC’s Injury Center,
National Strategies for
Advancing Child Pedestrian Safety offers ideas for encouraging
children to explore their environments by walking while reducing their
risk of pedestrian injury. This publication, produced in partnership
with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, discusses
strategies to—
- raise public awareness about child pedestrian safety;
- change attitudes and behaviors of both pedestrians and drivers;
- create safer environments for walking;
- develop and conduct safe-walking programs;
- address gaps in current knowledge about pedestrian safety;
- collect data to measure how much children walk and identify
factors put them at risk for injury while walking.
In addition, the full proceedings of the
meeting that led to these strategies--Reducing
Childhood Pedestrian Injuries: Proceedings of a Multidisciplinary
Conference--are available below for download.
