Call for Workshops

We are excited to announce a Call for Workshops for the Forging New Frontiers, the Injury Free Coalition's Annual Conference, to be held at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, December 4-6, 2026.

All workshops on the topics of intentional and unintentional injury prevention will be considered. Workshops must be interactive with attendee participation. Include in your description how you will include attendee participation. Please submit your proposals or suggestions for workshops even if you are not the presenter so that we can develop a great educational program. The specific dates and times for the workshops are yet to be determined, so if you have a preference please let us know.

The workshops will be approximately 90 minutes and can range from basic useful program topics to highly innovative injury prevention research topics. Some examples might be as follows:

• "Developing a New Injury Prevention Program for your Injury Free site"
• "Designing the web page for your Injury Free Site"
• "Applying statistics to Injury Prevention Work"
• "Funding for a New Injury Prevention Program"
• "Collaborative Injury Prevention Research"

Proposals should include a title, 3-5 objectives, suggested presenters and a brief description (less than 500 words). All workshop proposals must be submitted by 11:59 PM Eastern, May 31, 2026.

Submit your workshop suggestion using the link at the top of this page.
