Abstract
Traditional health program efforts toward the prevention of injury have been based on assumptions of individual responsibility for safety. The degree of impact which such programs have on injury incidence rates has not been determined. Health personnel are urged to adopt an orientation to the community, rather than to individuals, in approaching problems in injury control. The theoretical implications of individual versus community orientation are discussed using illustrative material from injury problems in childhood.
