Lighting the Way to Safety National Injury Prevention Day
L incoln Hospital joined the nationwide “green light” movement for National Injury Prevention Day, raising awareness about preventable trauma. In the hospital lobby, the Guns Down, Life Up (GDLU) team hosted a vital tabling event, distributing safety resources and engaging with the community to stop violence before it starts. While traditional injury prevention often focuses on accidents, GDLU treats violence as a public health crisis. By providing mentorship, conflict mediation, and hospital-based intervention for at-risk youth, GDLU actively interrupts the cycle of trauma. Together, Lincoln Hospital and GDLU are proving that the most powerful cure for injury is prevention.
