Health.
IPCP Vision

To provide statewide leadership in preventing death and disability
associated with injuries in Hawai‘i. This is accomplished by

on-going efforts.
In keeping with the mission of the Hawai‘i Department of Health,
the IPCP provides leadership in monitoring the nature and impact of
injury in Hawai‘i. The Program also protects and enhances the
health and environmental well-being of the community through prevention projects
such as Child Passenger Safety and School-Based Injury Prevention. In

- Descriptions of resources and services
supporting injury-related research

The invaluable contribution of community support and collaboration to
