We encourage families to register all products purchased to get on the recall list. You can also stay informed about any recalls or safety notices issued by manufacturers by subscribing to alerts or checking their websites for updates.

In rural communities, limited access to education, safety resources, & emergency services provide unique challenges. Factors like distance to recreation centers, different cultural beliefs, & hazards from machinery, livestock, & poor infrastructure can also increase risks.

As kids gain independence & form their own opinions, it's important to approach conversations in a way that feels respectful & collaborative. Framing safety chats as a way to empower them—instead of imposing rules—can help them understand how safety directly impacts their lives.

We can all agree that our shared goal is keeping our loved ones safe. Approach conversations by acknowledging their experiences, using relatable examples, and offering practical safety tips.

Today is #NationalInjuryPreventionDay! We'll be participating in @injuryfreekids 2024 X Chat, joining partners in the field of injury prevention to answer questions and discuss child safety.
