Core State Injury Prevention Program (Core SIPP)

The Core State Injury Prevention Program (Core SIPP) is a cooperative agreement that aims to support public health infrastructure, data, and partnerships to prevent unintentional injury. The program will focus on traumatic brain injury, older adult falls, and drowning, and recipients are encouraged to examine their data to address identified priority injury topics of local concern. Key outcomes include increased knowledge and use of emerging data sources, increased knowledge and translation of data, and enhanced multi-sector partnerships. Some key aspects of this opportunity include: • The program will support public health infrastructure, data, and partnerships to prevent unintentional injury. • Recipients will focus on traumatic brain injury, older adult falls, and drowning. • The program encourages recipients to examine their data to address identified priority injury topics of local concern. • Eligible applications must include a letter of commitment from the state health department officer, a letter of support from an organization representing the chosen population, and an organizational chart. • Documentation of access to the most recent primary data, including 2023 or 2024 mortality and hospitalization data, is required.
