A National Action Plan
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is committed to preventing child injury by
supporting solutions that will save lives. The National Action Plan for Child Injury Prevention (NAP)
was developed by CDC and more than 60 stakeholders to spark action across the nation. The overall
goals of the NAP are to raise awareness about the problem of child injury and the effects on our nation,
offer solutions by uniting stakeholders around a common set of goals and strategies, and mobilize action
to reduce child injury and death.
