Safe Teen Driving Issues Addressed One County at a Time

Cheyenne Regional Medical Center's Injury Prevention program in support of the Safe Communities Auto Safety project recently received a $14,500 grant from State Farm®.

"State Farm is a long-time supporter of promoting safe driving in Wyoming. We are grateful for their continued partnership, which will allow us to further educate teen drivers and others about the consequences of unsafe driving behaviors," said Stephanie Heitsch, Cheyenne Regional's injury prevention coordinator.

The grant will fund educational materials that focus on the dangers of drinking and driving as well as educating teen drivers. The materials will be distributed statewide and at safety events taking place this May in Laramie County, Albany County, Park County, Hot Springs County, Washakie County, Campbell County and Sheridan County.
