Educators of Policymakers
The Injury Prevention Center's director and staff have provided
technical testimony at state committee hearings and have worked
with legislators to develop bills for injury prevention initiatives
in Rhode Island. Injury Prevention Center staff members serve on
committees, regularly attend meetings organized by state agencies
and provide input on the legislative agenda. Injury Prevention Center
staff members also work with Brown Medical School students and residents
to expose them to the legislative process and emphasize the importance
of legislative involvement for the medical profession. State and
federal government agencies have asked the staff to speak at press
conferences and provide information to the media on injury-specific
topics.
