"son, somebody killed your son".

Empowering the Community
Traumatic injury is the leading cause of death in the United States for people between the ages of 1 and 44 years. First aid from bystanders has been shown to save lives.
Our research in India is based in the rural community of Nanakpur, Haryana.
With the help of the All India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS) and Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education & Research (PGIMER,) we at Sadanah are training first responders, advocating for Nanakpurs community health workers, and collaborating with the local government in Haryana to improve access to trauma and surgical care.
Indian Health Initiative
Our Initiative
In an effort to reduce injury morbidity and mortality within the Bolivian population, we at Sadanah facilitate the creation of evidence-based policy and interventions for injury prevention and trauma care quality improvements.
Bolivian Trauma Initiative
An estimated 4.8 to 5.8 million global deaths are attributable annually to injuries, with 90% occurring in low- and middle-income countries like Bolivia. Effective trauma systems lead to improved patient survival, with up to a 20% decrease in mortality and improved functional outcomes.
