Abstract:The mission of the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC)
is to reduce morbidity, disability, death, and costs associated with injuries
outside the workplace in the United States. NCIPC works closely with other
federal agencies; national, state, and local organizations; state and local health
departments; and research institutions. As part of its mission, NCIPC is
working to improve the quality and availability of national, state, and local
data on fatal and nonfatal injuries. These data are essential for monitoring
trends in injury events, developing and evaluating the effectiveness of injury
prevention programs, and providing the basis for decisions by policy makers
and the public.
