Safe Kids Nebraska is a network of programs to help protect children from unintentional injury.
Unintentional, or "accidental" injury is the leading cause of death and injury among children under the age of 14.

From car seat checkup, to water safety programs, bike rodeos, home safety programs and much more, local partners are working to make their communities safer.
