Given their access to vulnerable populations, particularly children, health and human service providers (health care providers, first responders, and social workers) can serve as important conduits for information to help keep consumers safe.  In this presentation, we will discuss the potential benefits of, as well as strategies to achieve, greater engagement with health and humans service providers. We will explore how they might work more closely with product safety colleagues, more easily transfer their knowledge to those who create products and policy, and better advise vulnerable consumers with product safety information that may be life-saving.
