You Are Invited!
Dear Colleague,
We are pleased to invite you to “Discover the Connections!” our first statewide conference linking child injury and maltreatment prevention. This three-day conference is scheduled for February 24-26, 2008, at the Radisson Hotel in Sacramento.
California’s Departments of Public Health and Social Services, in collaboration with the Center for Injury Prevention Policy and Practice at San Diego State University, have come together to sponsor this conference to promote awareness, communication, and collaboration among public health, social services, and other dedicated professionals committed to ensuring the safety of children.
The conference will illustrate shared issues in unintentional injury and child maltreatment ranging from cause-based factors of brain development and early life experiences to evidence-based strategies for intervening and preventing life-long suffering to children and adolescents. Best practices in public health and child welfare will be explored for opportunities that advance primary prevention and encourage a more integrated approach to programs and services. The conference will also include a hosted networking reception the evening of February 25, 2008.
Don’t miss the opportunity to attend the first annual conference in California focused on Bridging Strategies to Prevent Child Injury and Maltreatment. Come and Discover the Connections!
