Injuries can happen to anyone at any age. By focusing on injury prevention, we can help children have a healthy start to life and keep adults active and independent throughout their lifespan.

​

Accidents, including poisoning, falls, and vehicle collisions, were the fourth leading cause of death in Kitsap in 2021. Injuries that don't cause death can cause long-term trauma and disability.

To better understand and prevent injury and death of children, we have established a Child Fatality Review (CFR) panel. Learn more about this work here.
