Subject: [TRBHealth] A Public Health Approach to Traffic Safety
Hello everyone -
Please see the below announcement for a webinar on health and transportation (with
AME70's very own Dave Ederer!)
Vision Zero Network and the American Public Health Association (APHA) are collaborating on
a webinar on April 25th at 2pm ET / 11am PT. Joined by David Ederer of the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Meghan Mitman of Fehr & Peers, and Tiffany Smith
of Vision Zero Network, this webinar will discuss the role of transportation professionals
in public health, what safety strategies align with public health principles of injury
prevention, and highlight ways transportation practitioners can move past critical
institutional barriers to embrace more effective, equitable, and proactive approaches to
improving safety outcomes. This webinar is a great opportunity to learn more about how to
translate public health principles to roadway safety in ways that go beyond collaborating
with public health to institutionalizing public health principles. And if you’ve been
hoping to connect further with your public health partners at the city, county, and state
levels, we encourage you to invite them to join. Sharing this webinar with them could also
be a great stepping off point for discussion around further collaborative efforts. Join
the webinar here<https://apha.zoom.us/my/environmentsection> on April 25th.
