Additional Information

The National Program for Playground Safety (NPPS) was founded by Dr. Donna Thompson of the University of Northern Iowa in 1995. The NPPS promoted the formation of playground safety clubs across the US to apply the goals of the NPPS to local parks and playgrounds. The “National Action Plan for the Prevention of Playground Injuries” created by the NPPS is based on four elements which are encompassed in the abbreviation S.A.F.E.: Supervision, Age-appropriate design, Fall surface, and Equipment maintenance.
