"Our mission with the Johns Hopkins CARES Mobile Safety Center is to promote the safety of children and families by delivering fun, interactive education, and affordable safety products to the community. CARES stands for 'Children ARE Safe' and that is our ultimate goal," says Andrea C. Gielen, ScD, deputy director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Injury Research and Policy and professor of health policy and management at the Bloomberg School of Public Health. "Baltimore needs a service like the mobile safety center. Every year more than one thousand Baltimore children are hospitalized as a result of an injury - that's almost 3 children every day who do not need to be suffering from these preventable injuries," adds Dr. Gielen. Grants from the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will allow Dr. Gielen and colleagues at Johns Hopkins to evaluate the impact of the mobile safety center over the next two years.
