Injury Prevention Resources

At the University of Michigan Injury Prevention Center, we’re always working to make the latest injury prevention information easy to understand and use. We turn research into helpful tools, tips, and resources that everyone can use in real life — in healthcare settings, schools, local communities, at home, and more. Our Resource Library, curated by our IPC team and partners, includes free toolkits, short reports, educational videos, policy briefs, graphics, and webinars that cover many injury prevention topics, ready to download and share with others!
