As native people, we all look out for each other, whether related by blood or not.
When someone is killed or injured, we all mourn.” Alta Bruce

NOTE to PRESENTERS -- PLEASE DO NOT SHOW THIS SLIDE
The "Safe Tribal Communities" presentation is designed to serve as an orientation tool for new coalitions and potential coalition members by giving them a basic understanding of the Safe Communities model of injury prevention and control. Special emphasis is placed on the leading contributor to unintentional injuries and deaths -- motor vehicle crashes.
It starts out with brief summary of the problem, defines the Safe Tribal Communities model, details a checklist for starting a Tribal coalition, shares examples of successful coalitions, and ends with two slides on the useful information and technical assistance people will find at the Safe Communities Service Center Web site and through the BIA Indian Highway Safety Program.
Be sure and review the Notes section of this presentation. It gives you basic guidance and talking points for each of the slides. Also run the presentation in the Slide Show mode to see the order of points on each slide. A couple of slides present the information differently than you might expect.
Presenters are encouraged to modify this presentation to fit necessary time constraints, add your own insights, and customize the presentation to reflect the injury problems and concerns of your Tribe or in your community where the talk is being given to make it more relevant to the local audience.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact the Bureau of Indian Affairs Highway Safety Program.
