ThinkFirst Safety Program

The Brain Injury Alliance of Colorado is proud to support the ThinkFirst Foundation Leading Injury Prevention Through Education, Research and Policy.

Each year, an estimated 500,000 persons in the United States sustain a brain or spinal cord injury. In fact, injury is the leading cause of death among children and teens. The most frequent causes of these injuries are motor vehicle crashes, violence, falls, sports and recreation. The good news is that most injuries are preventable! The ThinkFirst National Injury Prevention Foundation's award-winning, evidence-based programs are aimed at helping people learn to reduce their risk for injury.
