PREVENT, in collaboration with the University of North Carolina’s Injury Prevention Research Center, is looking for volunteers to pilot test a self-assessment tool in the core areas of injury and violence prevention practice. This tool, developed as part of the National Training Initiative on Injury and Violence Prevention, is intended to assist individuals in understanding their areas of strengths and weakness regarding the fundamental and basic principles of injury and violence prevention from a public health perspective.  The instrument should take no more than 20-25 minutes to complete.

Your responses to the instrument are anonymous. The results will be aggregated and analyzed to help us determine if this is a good instrument. Individuals who complete this pilot test will have the opportunity to enter into a drawing for a $50 gift certificate to Amazon.com.  Deadline to complete the pilot test is July 18, 2008.

To complete the pilot test now go to:

Please help us increase our response rate by forwarding this email to your colleagues involved in injury and violence prevention work.

Thanks for your help!
