Carolinas Center for Injury Prevention and Control is a leader in the region for injury data and prevention strategies. Established in 1999, the Center's mission is to prevent injury, disability and death and the costs associated with injury in the southern piedmont area. Our staff works towards this goal through a multi-pronged approach of research, program development and evaluation, public and professional education and policy implementation. In addition to the Center's projects, our staff works collaboratively to reduce the burden of injury in our region chairing the Metrolina Regional Trauma's Injury Prevention committee and coordinating the Mecklenburg Safe Communities coalition, a network of agencies and community members working together to reduce injury in Mecklenburg County.
