What is the National Safety Council's Safety Ambassador Program?

It’s an outreach program focusing on motor vehicle safety, falls prevention, unintentional drug overdose, and overexertion. Whether directly, or indirectly, each of us has been touched by these issues. Yet, the injuries and deaths caused in these areas are preventable. Change can happen, but the Council can’t do it alone.

We need your help.

Please talk to your local businesses, your friends, and your family. We need you to help them understand how they can stay safe behind the wheel, in your community, and while at home. And, we’re giving you the materials you need to be successful.

Safety Ambassador kit enables anyone to advocate for safety. The program empowers you to help the public. A few ways you can use this program include:

  • Approach your local schools to educate teens about distractions behind the wheel

  • Increase awareness of the dangers of overexertion and how to avoid it

  • Offer tips to minimize falls within your workplace or home

  • Help others develop best practices and enforce good driving behaviors

  • Help people prevent unintentional drug overdose by understanding the risks

If you don’t feel comfortable presenting the enclosed materials, print out the posters and tip sheets and ask your local businesses to display them.
