National Child Safety Council

Did you know that there is an organization dedicated entirely to the safety of children in the United States?? The name of the organization is the National Child Safety Council. Beginning in 1955 the Police Safety Service helped form the NCSC after the number of accidental deaths was revealed to be higher than the number of deaths caused by communicable diseases. While the NCSC started out as an organization  focused on children over the years adults and seniors have been protected as well.

Police agencies and schools work in cooperation with the NCSC to help reduce the number of children dying from accidents through prevention education . Having their own research and development department with experienced educators, artists, writers and techs in the organization means more can be completed. NCSC helps get the word out by designing folders, placemats, color / activity sheets , books, games, stickers and other tools that help educate. The material created appeals to children, teens, adults and seniors.
