The Center for Injury Prevention Policy and Practice (CIPPP) is part of the Graduate School of Public Health at San Diego State University. Our mission is to reduce injury frequency and severity by helping government agencies and community programs incorporate injury prevention strategies into their ongoing efforts. CIPPP has been an injury prevention leader in California and nationally for more than 18 years. Throughout this time, CIPPP has advanced state-of-the-art in injury prevention through educational, policy, and capacity-building efforts.
CIPPP's senior injury prevention activities began in 1999 with the establishment of the California Task Force on Older Adults and Traffic Safety. CIPPP is now a recognized leader in promoting safe mobility for California's growing senior population.
