Pediatric Trauma Program
The Pediatric Trauma Program (PTP) was founded in 1994 by the Kiwanis California-Nevada-Hawaii Foundation with the goal of education and training on pediatric trauma and injury prevention. PTP strives to develop local projects, which will reduce the number of children in our three-state District who are killed or injured by trauma.
YES! Initiative

We can break this down into three sections: the “Y” for youth, the “E” for education, and the “S” for support!
