Injuries are the leading cause of death and disability to U.S. children from 1 to 18 years old. Every day, 20 children die nationwide from preventable injuries, resulting in more deaths than all other diseases combined. In fact, injury is the leading cause of death for people through 44 years of age.

On Thursday, Nov. 18, 2021, the country’s leading injury and violence prevention organizations and health professionals are joining forces to "shine a green light" for the second annual National Injury Prevention Day.
