Safe Kids North Central Florida at Shands Children's Hospital at the University of Florida, part of Safe Kids Worldwide, brings together more than 50 organizations and individuals who are concerned about childhood injury prevention. Founded in 1987, the coalition's mission is to provide education, programming and awareness about preventable injuries. The local chapter's efforts are led by Shands Hospital for Children at the University of Florida with funding provided in large part by Children's Miracle Network.

Sign up for car seat checks, find local safety events and join the Safe Kids Club at Safe Kids' Web site. The site answers many commonly asked questions about fire safety, water safety, car seat safety and bike safety and is linked to other injury prevention resources.
