The Childhood Agricultural Safety Network (CASN) was formed to strengthen partnerships and collaborations of national organizations dedicated to keeping children safe on the farm. These organizations represent the agricultural community, child injury prevention, and minority-serving associations (membership list).
A main goal of CASN is to raise awareness about issues in childhood agricultural safety to change behaviors that put children at risk on the farm. CASN members work together to produce marketing messages for the general public.
The current campaign “Keep Kids Away from Tractors” carries the message that children younger than 12 years should never be on or near tractors.
