Dean editor:
The Elmo Perth Injury
Prevention Committee
(RPIPC) is asking your
readers for support and
new members to help
avoid the aftern ath of dis-
ruption, pain, loss, sorrow
and expense caused by
injuries. Injury is the lead-
ing cause of death in peo-
ple under age 44. Injury
—� kills more children under
19 than all other causes
combined. There is much
work. to be done. `
The major task is to
create a shift in thinking.
We know that when most
injuries are investigated,
they are no "accidents." A
cause can be found and
the event was predictable.
We need this ~ shift in
thinking to take control by
creating as safe an envi-
ronment as possible.
kIPII'C has subcommit-
tees for the four areas of
concern: motor vehicle
occupant safety,. bicycle
safety, falls in seniors and
arm safety:
