His renowned expertise in the field of pediatric trauma care and injury control is a driving force behind Safe Kids Worldwide (formerly the National SAFE KIDS Campaign), a nonprofit he founded in 1988 to focus on childhood injury prevention. Dr. C. Everett Koop, former surgeon general of the United States, is his mentor.

He has educated a generation of parents and helped translate injury prevention research into simple programs that have a real impact on the frequency of childhood injuries. Also, his vision has put millions of bike helmets, smoke alarms and child safety seats into the hands of families in need.
