Community partners

Safe Kids Wisconsin, part of Safe Kids Worldwide, is one of more than 400 grassroots coalitions in the United States that helps families and communities keep kids safe from injuries. We provide prevention information on safety issues like ways to help prevent traffic and pedestrian injuries, drownings, falls, burns, poisonings and more. Safe Kids Wisconsin supports 10 coalitions throughout the state that provide safety education, support and programming. Safe Kids Wisconsin is led by Children’s Wisconsin.

The Safe Kids Southeast Wisconsin coalition serves Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Washington and Waukesha counties. The coalition is a group of many local organizations working together to prevent childhood injury. Safe Kids Southeast Wisconsin focuses on motor vehicle safety (child passenger and teen driving), bicycle and pedestrian safety and home safety (fire prevention). Safe Kids Southeast Wisconsin is led by Children’s Wisconsin.
