Welcome to the
ThinkFirst
Foundation
Leading Injury Prevention Through Education, Research and Policy
Each year, an estimated 500,000 persons in the United States
sustain a brain or spinal cord injury. In fact, injury is the leading cause of
death among children and teens. The most frequent causes of these injuries are
motor vehicle crashes, violence, falls, sports and recreation. The good news is
that most injuries are preventable! The ThinkFirst
National Injury Prevention Foundation's award-winning, evidence-based programs
are aimed at helping people learn to reduce their risk for injury.
Visit our website often to learn about ThinkFirst events, ThinkFirst
Chapter locations for scheduling school programs, and ordering educational
products. We also invite you to be a partner in prevention by supporting
ThinkFirst events and contributing through honorary or memorial donations.
Working together, we can play a significant role in helping kids learn to
"ThinkFirst!" Learn more . . .
