CoxHealth's injury prevention team offers free programs to teach children, teens, and adults how to stay safe on Missouri roads. From classroom lessons to live mock crashes, we bring real stories and hands-on experiences right to your school or organization.
We offer several formats depending on your audience's age, schedule, and goals. All programs are led by our injury prevention coordinator and can be scheduled for your school, church, workplace, or community organization.

Real Stories From Real People
Our Think First of the Ozarks chapter connects your group with victim impact speakers — people who have survived serious crashes and now share their stories to help others make safer choices. Each speaker brings a personal and emotional account of how one decision changed their life.
Think First of the Ozarks is part of the Think First National Injury Prevention Foundation. Our local chapter focuses on road safety, risky behavior, and fall prevention, and is led by Luke Spain, Chapter Director and Injury Prevention Coordinator at CoxHealth.
