Creating Safer States: Through Building Capacity for Injury & Violence Prevention - Each day, one person dies from injury or violence every three minutes, totaling nearly 192,900 deaths annually(1). These deaths account for more than $671 billion in medical care and lost productivity each year and represent only a small portion of the tremendous public health burden that preventable injuries and violence exert on individuals, families, communities and the healthcare system. Despite the existence of proven, cost-effective interventions to prevent injuries and violence, it has proven difficult reduce this incredible burden and to make a sustained, national-level impact. There are wide disparities in the size, funding, and overall capacity of state departments (SHDs) to address injuries and violence in ways that are comprehensive, sustainable, and meaningful. Currently for SHD Injury and Violence Prevention (IVP) programs there is limited capacity and resources in the foundational areas of: identifying, selecting, and implementing evidence-informed policy and program strategies to achieve the greatest health impact; conducting recommended surveillance of injuries and violence; conducting evaluation and communication activities to support evidence-informed strategies; and engaging in workforce development opportunities, particularly in the areas of program planning, policy, evaluation and partnership development and maintenance. Safe States, a membership organization comprised of public health IVP professionals representing all US states and territories, proposes to utilize its 25 years of experience in building SHD IVP capacity and extensive national partnership networks to conduct strategies in four areas including: training and technical assistance; individualized SHD assessment and support around the core components of a model SHD IVP program; collaboration and partnership development; and program and policy support with best available scientific evidence. The driving force behind the activities in this proposal is to advance the field of IVP through strategic strengthening of the IVP workforce and the capacity of SHD IVP programs, as well as the systematic advancement of IVP priorities through a comprehensive national partner network. Through the strategies and activities described in this proposal, Safe States intends to achieve the following outcomes: • increased capacity across CDC Core SVIPP funded and unfunded IVP programs to apply systems thinking, collaborative learning, and innovative methods to implement, and evaluate IVP prevention strategies, including identifying and measuring risk factors and protective factors that are shared across multiple forms of injury; • increased capacity and infrastructure in states that receive State Technical Assessment Team (STAT) visits; • increased development of the STRYVE Action Council and distribution and implementation of CDC’s scientific guidance (technical packages and emerging research); and • increased development and advancement of IVP partnerships that enhance broad-based support for IVP capacity and infrastructure. Ultimately, these activities are expected to increase organizational capacity of CDC-funded and unfunded SHD, territories, local health departments, tribal health departments, and Regional Network Collaborating Organizations (RNCO) IVP programs and staff, with an emphasis on surveillance, policy, program planning, evaluation, partnerships and communication, and lead to increased implementation of injury and violence prevention policy and program strategies based on the best available evidence.
