I am pleased to announce that the staff from Safe Kids Worldwide Programs are releasing "new" fact sheets for all risk areas and issues we promote through risk areas at the conference.
We are interested in hearing your feedback after your review.
Looking forward to seeing everyone and best wishes to a wonderful conference.

Many of us were not able to get CEU's because the CPS was held early in the conference and most of us did not arrive until Thursday. Would like to see this available for all.

Before we impliment this type of technology I think we need to offer some sort of education to coalitions as to what is a WIKI, how does it work and what are the benefits / drawbacks. As for me this is all new and I am not even sure I am posting this correctly. BTW what is a Keyword tag???? A little overwhelmed. Rene - Safe Kids East Central

That is a very good point. I know that new technology can be a little overwhelming, and i will make sure that we consider you idea. A keyword tag is just key words that you accosicate with your posting so that it will be listed when you search for it using that key word in the search tool.

I have seen Hasbro's speech and it is very good. I recommend everybody attending. Especially since there is a surprise give-away at this opening Plenary.

Friends: My colleagues on the SKW board and staff are very eager to engage you, and to learn from you, about how to save more lives and what we can do, as your partners, to support you in that work.
We are especially looking forward to our discussions on Friday about the new Clarity, Capacity, Credibility strategic plan. In my many discussions with member countries, coalitions, chapters, sponsors and others I heard repeatedly that SKW needs to clarify key elements of our strategy and our service model, that we need to build more capacity and do more to help you build capacity and, finally, that we need to strengthen our credibility as a partner in the public health community. That is what our new plan is about. Your reactions, counsel, refinement and, finally, partnership are crucial to our success.
And, in the case of SKW success is literally vital--it means kids' lives saved.
Please make a point of introducing yourselves to me and to my staff colleagues and telling us how we can be better partners, through the Clarity, Capacity and Credibility plan and beyond.

Definitely one of the highlights of the conference...the chance to get together and reconnect before we get busy! Be sure to come and join in the fun, and to thank our colleagues at Johnson & Johnson for their generous support of the event.
By the way -- if you want any recommendations of places to eat dinner, after the reception or any other night, please feel free to ask me or any member of the Safe Kids staff!

It's hard to believe its conference time again!
We are very excited to welcome you all to DC for another great conference. You will be happy to know we have listened to your feedback and built on the successes of previous conferences. We have kept the various tracks for sessions, shortened and improved the Awards Dinner, and secured great speakers for our plenary sessions. We have also added opportunites for attendees to network with one another and SKW staff with round table sessions. And most importantly, we have limited the amount of time Alan Korn will be addressing the attendees.
We look forward to see old friends and welcoming new ones, and making the 2007 conference the best yet. See you soon!
Dan

Everybody remind Tanya that Tuesday, October 16 is National Boss Day. She often forgets I "butter her bread".

I can't tell you how excited we are to have everyone coming to Washington next week. Leadership Conference is a lot of work for all of us attending, but it's also a great time to re-energize our efforts in support of kids.
There is a lot to be excited about this year at LC...a big increase in Safe Kids attendance, a big increase in attendance by other colleagues in the public health field, and a remarkable schedule of content-rich plenaries and breakouts.
We're glad you all are coming!

If I do say so myself, this is a good session. We will have some laughs along with some excellent information. Also a good session for new (or fairly new) coordinators.

This is a particularly good session for new (or fairly) new coordinators. You will leave this seesion knowing a lot more about some of the major safety devices that will consume your attention as a Safe Kids Coordinator or member.
I would like a few "seasoned" coordinators to attend also to chime in with their own experiences.
