Safe Kids

Community Health Alliance serves as lead agency for both the Safe Kids Missoula Coalition and Safe Kids Montana, our state office. Safe Kids Missoula and Safe Kids Montana are local coalitions of Safe Kids Worldwide, a global network of more than 400 grassroots coalitions dedicated to protecting children from preventable injury—the leading cause of death for children in the U.S. and here in Montana. Since Safe Kids Worldwide’s founding in 1988 the child death rate from unintentional injury has decreased by nearly 60 percent in the U.S. through education and advocacy efforts of these grassroots coalitions.
