Mission
TO CREATE A CULTURE OF CHILDHOOD SAFETY IN NORTHEAST WISCONSIN BY PROVIDING EDUCATION AND RESOURCES TO CHILDREN AND ADULTS.
Program accomplishments
- OUR ORGANIZATION IS DEDICATED TO HELPING FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES KEEP KIDS SAFE FROM INJURIES. FOR 30 YEARS, THE CENTER FOR CHILDHOOD SAFETY HAS BEEN A ""VACCINE"" AGAINST ACCIDENTAL CHILDHOOD INJURY. CCS'S MISSION IS TO BE THE LEADING SOURCE OF SAFETY EDUCATION AND PROGRAMMING IN NORTHEAST WISCONSIN, DEDICATED TO PREVENTING AND ELIMINATING CHILDHOOD INJURY. EACH YEAR MORE THAN 6.5 MILLION YOUNG PEOPLE ARE INJURED SEVERELY ENOUGH TO LAND IN A HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM, MANY WITH LIFE-ALTERING CONSEQUENCES. YET, AN ASTOUNDING 90% OF THESE COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED THROUGH EDUCATION AND PREVENTION MEASURES LIKE THOSE OFFERED THROUGH THE CENTER FOR CHILDHOOD SAFETY (CCS). PREVENTABLE INJURIES LEAD TO MORE DEATH OR DISABILITY FOR CHILDREN AGES 1-19 IN WISCONSIN AND AROUND THE COUNTRY. WHEN WE TALK ABOUT PREVENTABLE INJURIES, WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT SKINNED KNEES, BRUISED SHINS OR SCRAPED ELBOWS. THOSE ARE THE TELLTALE SIGNS OF A CURIOUS CHILD, LEARNING ABOUT THE WORLD AND LOOKING FOR ADVENTURE. CENTER FOR CHILDHOOD SAFETY (CCS) WORKS TO PROTECT KIDS FROM MORE SERIOUS INJURIES AND DEATHS THAT DON'T HAVE TO HAPPEN. WE WANT A WORLD WHERE NO PARENT HAS TO EXPERIENCE THE LOSS OF A CHILD. ENDING THIS GLOBAL EPIDEMIC DOES NOT REQUIRE A NEW DRUG OF VACCINE. IT'S ABOUT EDUCATION, AWARENESS AND BEHAVIOR CHANGE. 40% OF ALL DEATHS IN CHILDREN AGES 1-19 ARE DUE TO INJURY. THAT IS ONE CHILD EVERY HOUR. BY APPLYING WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT DISEASE PREVENTION TO CHILD INJURY, WE CAN KEEP MORE CHILDREN SAFE. INJURY IS THE TOP CAUSE OF MEDICAL SPENDING FOR CHILDREN--ABOUT $87 BILLION EVERY YEAR. THERE ARE FEWER RESOURCES AND A SMALLER AMOUNT FOR FUNDING FOR INJURY RESEARCH AND PREVENTION THAN FOR OTHER LESS COMMON CAUSES OF DEATH.SAFETY TOWN:SAFETY TOWN IS A 15 HOURS SUMMER SAFETY CAMP, WHERE CHILDREN LEARN SAFETY PROCEDURES THROUGH HANDS-ON INVOLVEMENT. UNDER THE OVERSIGHT OF A LICENSED TEACHER, STUDENTS WORK IN TEEN-LED SMALL GROUPS TO PRACTICE AND EXPERIENCE ""REAL LIFE"" SITUATIONS. WITH THE HELP OF TRAINED SAFETY PROFESSIONALS FROM THE COMMUNITY, CHILDREN ARE TAUGHT TO EVALUATE ""SAFE VERSUS UNSAFE AND LEARN HOW TO REACT SAFETY WHEN CONFRONTED WITH POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. THE PROGRAM OFFERS A CLASSROOM SEGMENT, AS WELL AS HANDS ON EXPERIENCE IN THE STREETS OF A SPECIALLY DESIGNED CHILD SIZED ""SAFETY TOWN"". SAFETY TOWN IS HELD JUNE-AUGUST EACH YEAR.CHILD PASSENGER SAFETY:MOTOR VEHICLE CRASHES ARE THE NUMBER ONE CAUSE OF DEATH AMONG CHILDREN AGES 1 TO 19, BUT MANY OF THESE INJURIES ARE PREVENTABLE. THE CENTER FOR CHILDHOOD SAFETY (CCS) IS LEADING THE EFFORTS IN BROWN COUNTY TO TEACH FAMILIES HOW TO TRANSPORT CHILDREN SAFELY.DURING THE 30-45 MINUTE INSPECTION, SPECIALLY TRAINED TECHNICIANS WORK WITH PARENTS TO IDENTIFY AND CORRECT POTENTIAL PROBLEMS. SEATS ARE ASSESSED FOR AGE, PROPER FIT OF THE CHILD IN THE SEAT, PROPER FIT OF THE SEAT IN THE VEHICLE, RECALLS, AND STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY. CHECKS ARE HELD FREE OF CHARGE. SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL:SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL PROMOTES HELMET, BIKE, AND PEDESTRIAN SAFETY IN THE COMMUNITY. WE VISIT LOCAL AT-RISK SCHOOLS TO TEACH SAFETY, FIT AND GIVE HELMETS TO STUDENTS, AND THEN TEST THEIR NEWLY-LEARNED SKILLS ON OUR PRACTICE COURSE. AT THIS EVENT, STUDENTS ARE FITTED FOR THEIR OWN BICYCLE HELMETS AND COMPLETE BICYCLE SAFETY COURSES. OVER THE PAST 30 YEARS, THIS EVENT HAS PUT HELMETS ON THE HEADS OF OVER 15,000 CHILDREN. ROAD TRAFFIC CRASHES RANKS AMONG THE TOP 4 CAUSE OF DEATH FOR ALL CHILDREN OVER 5. HELMET USE IS THE SINGLE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO REDUCE BICYCLE RELATED FATALITIES. THE PROPER HELMET CAN REDUCE HEAD INJURIES BY 88%, YET ONLY 29% OF CHILDREN WHO RIDE BIKES SAY THEY ALWAYS WEAR HELMETS. THE TYPICAL CRASH OCCURS WITHIN A SINGLE MILE OF HOME. SAFE SLEEP:OUR SAFE SLEEP COMMUNITY COLLABORATION ENSURES THAT NEWBORNS IN UNDER-SERVED POPULATIONS HAVE A PLACE TO SLEEP SAFELY THROUGH THE DISTRIBUTION OF PACK-N-PLAYS ACCOMPANIED BY ONE-ON-ONE SAFETY EDUCATION. THE SAFE SLEEP PROGRAM ENSURES PARENTS AREN'T UNINTENTIONALLY HARMING THEIR CHILDREN SIMPLY DUE TO THE LACK OF ACCESS TO SAFE SLEEP INFANT PRODUCTS.SAFE SITTER:CCS IS A REGISTERED SAFE SITTER TEACHING SITE. IT IS DESIGNED TO PREPARE OLDER CHILDREN TO BE SAFE WHEN THEY ARE HOME ALONE, WATCHING YOUNGER SIBLINGS, OR BABYSITTING. THIS INCLUDES IMPORTANT SAFETY SKILLS, HOW TO HANDLE EMERGENCIES, AND HOW TO TREAT CERTAIN ILLNESSES AND INJURIES.CPR CERTIFICATION (ADULT, INFANT, AED, & FIRST AID)THIS CLASS TEACHES LIFE-SAVING TECHNIQUES: THE HEIMLICH MANEUVER AND INFANT TO ADULT CPR. IN CLASS, YOU'LL LEARN THE PROPER TECHNIQUES FOR BREATHING, CHEST THRUSTS, BACK BLOWS, AND MORE. THE OTHER ADVANTAGE OF TAKING A CLASS? YOU'LL GET EXPERIENCE PRACTICING THESE EMERGENCY TECHNIQUES AND STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT THE MORE PEOPLE PRACTICE, THE MORE CONFIDENT THEY ARE IN A TRUE EMERGENCY.Expenses $107,903 · revenue $42,456
