Led by Cherokee County Fire & Emergency Services, Safe Kids Cherokee County is one of 31 Georgia coalitions through Safe Kids Worldwide, a global organization dedicated to preventing injuries in children, which is the number-one killer of children in the United States, according to a Safe Kids Cherokee County statement.
Since the founding of SafeKids in 1988, there has been a 60% decrease in the unintentional injury rate among children 19 years and younger across the nation.
