Trainees for Child Injury Prevention (T4CIP) is a group of trainees from across the country passionate about pediatric child injury prevention that develops outreach materials and strategies for one-day national advocacy campaigns. The core group of trainees reaches out to other trainees and residency programs asking them to participate in each Day of Action by sharing information during their morning report, noon conference, or continuity clinic, as well as share information on social media.
